23-year old point guard Sara Maksimovska (172-PG-2002) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for league's best team KAM Basket Kamenica and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 3.
She had a double-double of 25 points and 10 rebounds, while her team beat Kriva Palanka (#4, 2-1) 83-70. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. It allowed KAM Basket to consolidate first place in the North Macedonian Prva A Liga. They maintain a perfect record without any lost game in the league. The season is still on an early stage, but KAM Basket already had a very good start winning all 3 without losing a single one. In the team's last game Maksimovska had a remarkable 71.4% from 2-point range. She has many years of experience at KAM Basket, through which she has constantly improved. Sara Maksimovska averages just after three games 14.0ppg and 6.0rpg.

Second best performed player last round was Alexis Poole (188-F-1999) of KK Kriva Palanka. She is American forward in her first season at Kriva Palanka. In the last game Poole recorded an impressive 23 points and 6 rebounds. Bad luck as Kriva Palanka lost that game 70-83 to KAM Basket (3-0). The season is still at the very beginning and this lost game may not be such crucial, of course if they start win the games. Let's wait for the next round. Poole is a newcomer at Kriva Palanka and quickly became one of team's most reliable players. She belongs to the best scorers in the league with 26.7ppg (#1). She also registered 9.3 boards per game.

Third place about best performers goes to forward Kayla Thomas (188-F-2003) of Probasket Akademija (#5). Thomas scored 17 points and grabbed 13 rebounds (!!!). She was a key player of Probasket, leading her team to a 91-53 easy win against Patriot (#7, 0-3). Probasket needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams. Their record at this point is 2 victories and 1 lost game. Thomas has a great season in North Macedonia. After only 3 games, she made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 25.0ppg (2nd best) and rebounds with 16.3rpg (#1 in league).

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)
