American Langston Wilson (206-PF-2000, agency: 011 Sports) had an amazing evening in the last round for KK Pelister Sport Bitola and that's him to receive a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 16.
The 25-year old power forward had the game-high 26 points adding nine rebounds for Pelister in his team's victory, helping them to crush, the league's bottom-ranked team Angeli (#12, 0-16) with 22-point margin 100-78. Pelister maintains the 3rd position in North Macedonian Prva Liga. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier this season. Pelister will need more victories to improve their 12-4 record. In the team's last game Wilson had a remarkable 75.0% from 2-point range. He turned to be Pelister's top player in his first season with the team. University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee graduate has very impressive stats this year. Wilson is in league's top in rebounds (7th best: 7.9rpg) and averages solid 64.3% FGP. Worth to mention Wilson played also at Eurobasket Summer League, which helped him get the job in pro basketball.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was young American guard Terry Armstrong (201-G-2000, agency: 6th Man Basketball Agency) of KK Madzari GB. Armstrong impressed basketball fans with 28 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists. Of course Madzari cruised to a 91-81 relatively comfortable win over the lower-ranked Tikvesh (#10, 6-10). This victory allowed Madzari to move up to 5th position in the standings. His team lost some distance to top teams. But a 8-8 record is not bad and everything may still change. Armstrong is a newcomer at Madzari and it seems he did not have too much trouble to become one of team's leaders.

The third best performed player last round was Bosnia and Herzegovina Robert Rikic (219-C-1990, agency: AltusBasket) of KK Rabotnicki AD Skopje (#7). Rikic scored 21 points and grabbed 13 rebounds (!!!). Despite Rikic's great performance the Rabotnicki lost 66-68 to the lower-ranked Gostivar (#11, 4-12). But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates. The chances of Rabotnicki ranking at the top of the league, however are very questionable as they have already lost 10 games, recording just seven victories. With bigger assistance of his teammates, Rikic could help Rabotnicki to bring them higher in the standings. Rikic has a great season in North Macedonia. After 10 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 20.3ppg (4th best) and rebounds with 12.2rpg (#1 in league). He also has 1.4bpg and a FGP of 61.6%.

Other top performing players last week:
4. Jalin Billingsley (203-F-2002) of Cair 2030 - 26 points and 7 rebounds
5. Javon Greene (193-G-1999) of Madzari - 24 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists
6. Uros Lukovic (213-C-1989) of Kumanovo MK - 18 points and 12 rebounds
7. Meti Taci (194-G-2003) of Cair 2030 - 18 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists
8. Marjan Mladenovic (180-PG-1987) of Gostivar - 18 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists
9. Viktor Efremovski (194-SG-1998) of Rabotnicki - 18 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists
10. Jovan Crnic (195-G-1994) of Gostivar - 19 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists

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)
