American Guard Dyani Robinson (170-G-2001) had a great game in the last round for top-ranked KK Kriva Palanka, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 19.
The 24-year old player was the main contributor (34 points, eight rebounds and five assists) to her team's victory, helping them to crush Vardar (#4, 13-6) with 21-point margin 84-63. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. It allowed Kriva Palanka to consolidate first place in the North Macedonian Prva A Liga. Kriva Palanka have a solid 16-3 record. In the team's last game Robinson had a remarkable 52.6% from 2-point range and got four three-pointers out of 9 attempts. It's her second year at Kriva Palanka and it's hard to imagine this team without her. Former University of North Texas star has very solid stats this year. Robinson is in league's top in points (2nd best: 22.1ppg) and averages impressive 51.1% FGP.

The second best player in last round's games was another Kriva Palanka's star - young American Abby Niehues (186-PF-1999, agency: DC Sports).

Of course together with Robinson she helped KK Kriva Palanka with another comfortable win outscoring the lower-ranked Vardar (#4, 13-6) 84-63. It was definitely game of the week between two contenders to the title. Kriva Palanka consolidated its place in the very top position of the standings. Her team lost just three games this season, while they won 16 matches. Niehues is a newcomer at Kriva Palanka, but is already one of team's top players.

Third on the list of top players last round was American guard Lauren Scott (165-G) of ZKK Patriot (#7). Scott got into 30-points club by scoring exactly 30 points in the last round.
