31-year old MKD-TURn
Cedi Osman (203-SF-1995) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for
PAOK Mateco Thessaloniki and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 3.
He had the game-high 37 points adding three rebounds for
PAOK in his team's victory, helping them to edge out
Kolossos (#9,
1-2)
88-84.
PAOK is placed at 3rd position in Greek league. They maintain a perfect record without any lost game in the league. The season is still on an early stage, but
PAOK already had a very good start winning all 3 without losing a single one. In the team's last game Osman had a remarkable seven three-pointers out of 11 attempts. He turned to be
PAOK's top player in his first season with the team. Osman has impressive league stats. He is in league's top in points (2nd best: 27.5ppg) and averages solid 75.0% FGP and 52.6% from behind 3-point line.
Second best performed player last round was
Dontrez Styles (198-G/F-2002, agency:
Slash Sports) of
Iraklis KAE 2022 Thessaloniki. He is American swingman in his first season at Iraklis. In the last game Styles recorded an impressive double-double of 24 points and 10 rebounds. Of course he led Iraklis to another comfortable win
71-53 over
Karditsa (
2-1) being unquestionably team leader. The season is still at the very beginning and this victory may help a lot. Let's wait for the next round. Styles is a newcomer at Iraklis and quickly became one of team's most reliable players.
Third place about best performers goes to guard
Jermaine Love (191-G-1989) of
Mykonos Betsson BC (#10). Love showcased his all-around game by recording 25 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the last round. Despite Love's great performance the Mykonos lost
79-84 to
AEK (#7,
2-1). But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates. The chances of Mykonos not to end season at such low position in the league, however are less than slim as they have already lost 2 games, recording just one victory. With bigger assistance of his teammates, Love could try to bring Mykonos' a little bit higher in the standings. Love has individually a great season in Greece. After only 3 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 23.0ppg (3rd best).

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)
