American Forward Mike Bruesewitz (201-F-90) put on an extraordinary performance in the last round for second-ranked Mineros, receiving a Interperformances LNBP Player of the Week award for round 3.

The 30-year old player was the main contributor (30 points, seven rebounds) to his team's victory, helping them to beat Dorados (#3, 2-2) 86-80. Mineros maintains the 2nd position in their group in Mexican LNBP. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost that single game earlier this season. Mineros will need more victories to improve their 3-1 record. Bruesewitz turned to be Mineros' top player in his first season with the team. Mike Bruesewitz averages this season 14.5ppg.



The second best player in last round's games was 26-year old American Jordan Adams (196-SG-94) of Libertadores. Adams had a very good evening with 36 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists. Bad luck as Libertadores lost that game 94-100 to Soles (2-2). 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. Adams is a newcomer at Libertadores, but is already one of team's top players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 29.3ppg (#3). His other stats are also decent: 5.3rpg and 4.5apg.



Third on the list of top players last round was American forward Terrell Carter II (208-PF-95, agency: Haylett Sports) of Abejas (#6). Carter II scored 22 points and grabbed fourteen rebounds (!!!). Despite Carter II's great performance Abejas lost 93-99 to Astros (#4, 2-2). But his team cannot count on just a single player as he also needs help of the other teammates. Abejas can only dream about fighting for top spots in West. They have awful season losing so far all 4 games. Carter II has individually a great season in Mexico. After only 4 games, he made it on the list of the league's leaders in points with 18.5ppg (9th best) and rebounds with 8.5rpg (7th best).

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)
