Lee's double-double lands her Player of the Week award

24-year old American forward Marisa Lee (185-F-2002) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for KK Kriva Palanka and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 3.
She had a double-double of 28 points and 26 rebounds, while her team outclassed Gevgelija (1-2) with 29-point margin 86-57. Kriva Palanka is placed at 4th position in North Macedonian Prva A Liga. Kriva Palanka is rather a weak team placed in lower part in the standings. They need more victories to improve their 1-2 record. Lee turned to be Kriva Palanka's top player in her first season with the team. Southern Connecticut State University graduate has very impressive stats this year. Lee is in league's top in points (8th best: 18.0ppg), rebounds (2nd best: 16.0rpg) and averages solid 1.3bpg,3.3spg and 53.3% FGP.

Second best performed player last round was Lindsey Cleary (183-F-1997) of top-ranked KK Badel 1862 Skopje. She is American forward in her 2nd season at Badel. In the last game Cleary recorded an impressive double-double of 36 points and 14 rebounds. It was enough for Badel to edge KAM Basket (2-1) by 4 points 84-80. A very good start of the season for her team, which won so far all 3 games without any defeat. Cleary is well-known at Badel and she already established her position as one of the team's leaders. She belongs to the best scorers in the league with 22.7ppg (#3). She also registered 11.3 boards per game. Former Claremont-Mudd-Scripps College star Cleary is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top international summer league in the market.

Third place about best performers goes to Dusica Miceva (2009) of Probasket Akademija (#6). Miceva scored 16 points and grabbed 26 rebounds (!!!). She was a key player of Probasket, leading her team to a 70-52 easy win against Patriot (#8, 0-3). The chances of Probasket 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 victories. With bigger assistance of her teammates, Miceva could try to bring Probasket's a little bit higher in the standings. Miceva has individually a great season in North Macedonia. After only 3 games, she made it on the list of the league's leaders in rebounds with 17.0rpg (#1 in league).
