Margaret Bagaala put on an amazing game in the last round for KCCA Leopards and that's her to receive a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 22.
The had a double-double of 12 points and 12 rebounds, while her team beat Magic S. (#7, 7-8) 65-60. KCCA Leopards maintains the 3rd position in Ugandan NBL. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier this season. KCCA Leopards will need more victories to improve their 11-3 record. It's Bagaala's second year at KCCA Leopards and it's hard to imagine this team without her. Bagaala has impressive league stats. She is in league's top in assists (9th best: 3.5apg) and averages solid 3.2spg.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was forward Daphine Adong (F) of Magic Stormers Kampala. Adong impressed basketball fans with 16 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists. Bad luck as Magic S. lost that game 60-65 to the higher-ranked KCCA Leopards (#3, 11-3). This loss caused Magic S. to drop to 7th position in the standings. Her team is not often considered as one of the league's best with a mere 7-8 record. Adong is one of the most experienced players at Magic S. and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players.

The third best performed player last round was another KCCA Leopards' star - international guard Tracy Namugosa (170-G-2000). Namugosa scored 28 points and passed 5 assists. She was another key player of KCCA Leopards, helping her team with a 65-60 win against the lower-ranked Magic S. (#7, 7-8). KCCA Leopards needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams. Their record at this point is 11 victories and 3 lost games. Namugosa has a great season in Uganda. After 14 games, she made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 20.8ppg (best scorer). She also has 3.1spg and a FGP of 55.4%.
