Guard
Samuel Schadeck (190-G) had an amazing evening in the last round for
SFS BCCA Neufchateau and receives a Hoops Agents Top Division I Player of the Week award for round 6.
He had a double-double of 42 points and 10 rebounds, while his team beat
Kontich (
1-5)
91-82. The game rather meaningless between the teams, which do not have any influence on top of the standings.
Neufchateau maintains the 14th position in Belgian Top Division I. Too late to salvage the team, which is currently ranked at the very bottom. They already lost 5 games and recorded just one victory. In the team's last game Schadeck had a remarkable 78.6% from 2-point range and got four three-pointers out of 7 attempts. He has many years of experience at
Neufchateau, through which he has constantly improved. Schadeck has impressive league stats. He is in league's top in points (6th best: 20.2ppg) and averages solid 57.9% FGP.
Second best performed player last round was
Yannick Desiron (206-C-1992) of
Insurea Kontich Wolves. He is international center in his 2nd season at Kontich. In the last game Desiron recorded an impressive 31 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists. Bad luck as Kontich lost that game
82-91 to
Neufchateau (
1-5). The game was between two teams which are definitely not main contenders for the title. Kontich dropped in the standings to second-to-the-bottom (13th) position. 5 lost games are too many comparing to just one victory Kontich managed to get this year. Desiron is well-known at Kontich and he already established his position as one of the team's leaders. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 23.7ppg (#2). He also registered 7.2 boards per game.
Third place about best performers goes to forward
Andrej Cuyvers (193-PF-2001) of
BC Guco Lier Vzw (#4). Cuyvers got into 30-points club by scoring exactly 30 points in the last round. He went also for seven rebounds and five assists. He was a key player of Guco Lier, leading his team to a
88-78 win against #2 ranked
LDP Donza in a game of the week. Guco Lier started extremely well this year. They recorded 4 victories without losing a single game. Cuyvers turns to be one of the very best players in the league while he is also a leader of the top team having his eyes on the championship title. Cuyvers has a great season in Belgium. After only 4 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 35.3ppg (best scorer) and assists with 6.8apg (best passer).

The Player of the week is selected based on efficiency calculation, but also including game result, importance of the game, if played recorded double-double/triple-double, etc.
The efficiency formula is a combination of various formulas used by different basketball organizations/leagues. We got involved many basketball scouts and journalists to assure it's accuracy.
The formula: 1.5*PTS + 3*(REB+AST+ST+BL-TO) - 2*BSAG - 4*PF + 3*PFRV + 4*(2FGPM+3FGPM) + 1.5*FTM - 3*(2FGPA-2FGPM) - 3*(3FGPA-3FGPM) - (FTA-FTM)
