American Guard Kiara Jackson (170-G-2003) put on an amazing game in the last round for top-ranked ZKK Brod na Savi Slavonski Brod, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 2.
The 22-year old player was the main contributor (32 points, six rebounds and seven assists) to her team's victory, helping them to outclass KAZL Split (#6, 1-1) with 51-point margin 103-52. It allowed Brod na Savi to take over top position in the Croatian Premijer Liga. But it's just the very beginning of the season and Brod na Savi won both games without losing any. It's too early to say anything as the standings can be changed completely after next round. In the team's last game Jackson had a remarkable 66.7% from 2-point range. She turned to be Brod na Savi's top player in her first season with the team. Former University of Nevada - Las Vegas star has very solid stats this year. Jackson is league's best scorer averaging so far 27.5ppg. Jackson is in league's top in and averages impressive 6.0spg,61.9% FGP and 46.7% from behind 3-point line.

The second best player in last round's games was young Jelena Brkicic (180-F-2006) of league's second-best ZKK Plamen Pozega. Brkicic had a very good evening with a double-double of 30 points and 13 rebounds. Of course she led Pozega to another comfortable win outscoring Zadar (0-2) 90-67. Her team has extremely good start of the season. They won both games so far. However the season is at the beginning, so everything can happen. They still may lose their high position in the standings. Brkicic is a newcomer at Pozega, but is already one of team's top players. She belongs to the best scorers in the league with 22.0ppg (#5). She also registered 13.5 boards per game.

Third on the list of top players last round was American center Brooke Flowers (195-C-2000) of ZKK Zadar Plus (#12). Flowers scored 27 points and grabbed 18 rebounds (!!!). Despite Flowers' great performance the Zadar Plus lost 74-86 to Ragusa (#3, 2-0). But her team cannot count on just a single shooter as she also needs help of the other teammates. Flowers has individually a great season in Croatia. After only 2 games, she made it on the list of the league's leaders in rebounds with 15.5rpg (#1 in league).
