International Center Julianna Okosun (194-C-2001, agency: Highlight Athletes) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for top-ranked AKS Falcon Copenhagen, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 8.
The 23-year old player had a double-double of 28 points and 10 rebounds, while her team beat SISU (#3, 4-3) 80-71. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. It allowed Falcon to take over top position in the Danish Dameligaen. Falcon have a solid 6-1 record. In the team's last game Okosun had a remarkable 58.8% from 2-point range. It's her second year at Falcon and it's hard to imagine this team without her. Former Marquette University star has very solid stats this year. Okosun is league's best scorer averaging so far 22.1ppg. Okosun is in league's top in rebounds (4th best: 9.3rpg) and averages impressive 3.6spg.

The second best player in last round's games was young international forward Emilie Gudmand (177-F-2001) of BMS Herlev. Gudmand had a very good evening with 27 points and 3 rebounds. Of course she led Herlev to another comfortable win outscoring Amager (#5, 0-7) 85-56. Herlev's 4th position in the standings has not changed. 6 lost games are too many comparing to just two victories Herlev managed to get this year. Gudmand is one of the most experienced players at Herlev and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. She belongs to the best scorers in the league with 13.9ppg (#6). She also registered 5.5 boards per game.

Third on the list of top players last round was another Herlev's star - guard Caroline Reumert (178-G-2008). Reumert scored 13 points.
