#1. Nikos Chougkaz (6'10''-F-2000, played in 2019-20, plays pro in Greece) contributed to an easy victory against the closely-ranked Aris (11-10) crushing them 84-62 in the Greek GBL on Saturday night. He scored 10 points and grabbed 6 rebounds in 18 minutes. Peristeri BWin Athens (14-7) is placed third in the GBL. Chougkaz's team will play only one more game in the Regular Season. And that game will be critical. It's Chougkaz's first season with the team. This year he averages 6.5ppg and 3.5rpg.
#2. Laterrance Reed (6'2''-G, played in 2018-22, plays in Ukraine) could not help Krivbas (2-24) in their last game. Despite Reed's very good performance Krivbas was badly defeated85-66 on the road by the higher-ranked (#7) Stariy Lutsk. He was the top scorer with 21 points. Reed also added 5 rebounds and dished 4 assists (went 7 for 7 at the free throw line); quite an impressive performance considering it's only his second season in pro basketball. It was Krivbas' sixth consecutive loss in a row. Reed's team will play only one more game in the Regular Season. And now that game is very crucial. Reed has individually a very good year with high stats. He averages 17.9ppg, 4.8rpg, 3.5apg and 1.6spg in 18 games he played so far.
#3. Jamaure Gregg (6'7''-F-1999, played in 2019-21, currently in Kazakhstan) led Barsy Atyrau to an easy victory against the closely-ranked Astana Academy (13-15) 71-52 in the Kazakhstan National League last Wednesday. He scored 12 points and grabbed 7 rebounds in 24 minutes. BK Barsy Atyrau (1-20) is placed second from the bottom (#8) in the National League. The Regular Season already ended. It's Gregg's first season with the team. This year Gregg has very high stats. He averages 15.8ppg, 6.0rpg, 1.6apg and 1.8spg.
#4. Ishmael Lane (6'8''-F/C-1997, played in 2015-19, plays pro in South Korea) was not able to help Seoul Samsung Thunders (13-36) in their last game. Despite his good performance the bottom-ranked Seoul Samsung Thunders lost 84-89 in Busan to the much higher-ranked (#3) Sonicboom. Lane scored 10 points and grabbed 5 rebounds. There are only four games left until the end of the Regular Season. So now every game will be important. It's Lane's first season with the team. This year he averages 9.4ppg and 4.6rpg in 49 games.
