31-year old forward Joseney Joaquim (200-F-1992) put on an amazing game in the last round for Jesus Cristo and receives a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 12.
He had a double-double of 16 points and 29 rebounds, while his team beat Kwanza (#12, 0-13), the league's bottom-ranked team 97-88. Jesus Cristo maintains the 7th position in Angolan league. Jesus Cristo is a typical solid league team placed somewhere in the middle or a little bit lower in the standings. They need more victories to improve their 6-6 record. Joaquim turned to be Jesus Cristo's top player in his first season with the team. Joaquim has impressive league stats. He leads league in rebounds with 11.4rpg. Joaquim is in league's top in and averages solid 1.2bpg and 54.7% FGP.

Second best performed player last round was Elizeu Ventura of Clube Desportivo Kwanza Luanda. He is a in his first season at Kwanza. In the last game Ventura recorded an impressive 30 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists. Bad luck as Kwanza lost that game 88-97 to the higher-ranked Jesus Cristo (#7, 6-6). Kwanza are still at the very bottom. 13 lost games are too many considering they did not win any game. Ventura is a newcomer at Kwanza and quickly became one of team's most reliable players.

Third place about best performers goes to center Joao Aldemiro (207-C-1993) of league's leader Atletico Petroleos de Luanda. Aldemiro scored 18 points and grabbed 7 rebounds. He was a key player of P.Luanda, leading his team to a 119-74 easy win against the lower-ranked ASA (#11, 2-12). Many experts and fans count P.Luanda as a contender for championship title. Another victory and another confirmation that they may be right. Just look at their record: 13 victories and only one lost game. They are currently at the very top of the standings. Aldemiro has a very solid season. In 13 games in Angola he scored 6.2ppg. He also has 4.4rpg and a FGP of 76.0%.
