#1. Ivana Grbic (6'0''-G/F-91, graduated '15, plays pro in Czech Republic) led SBS Ostrava to an easy victory against the league outsider U19 Chance (0-8) crushing them 90-45 in the Czech Republic ZBL in Wednesday night's game. He recorded 12 points, 3 assists and 3 steals in 21 minutes. SBS Ostrava (3-4) is placed seventh in the ZBL. It was his team's first victory after three consecutive loses. This year Grbic averages 3.6ppg, 1.6rpg and 1.3apg in seven games he played so far.
#2. Obi Kyei (6'9''-F-94, graduated '17, plays in Australia) contributed to an Adelaide 36ers' victory against the closely-ranked Melbourne Phoenix (5-4) 103-91 in the Australian NBL last Monday. He scored 6 points and grabbed 6 rebounds. Adelaide 36ers (4-5) are placed fifth in the NBL. It was his team's first victory after four consecutive loses. But this is still an early stage of the season and everything may happen. It's Kyei's first year with the team. This season Kyei averages 3.1ppg and 5.1rpg. He has also Australian citizenship.
#3. Trevon Young (6'6''-PF-95, graduated '18, currently in Chile), who plays in the Chilean Liga Nacional could not help the league outsider Quilicura (0-6) in their last game. Despite Young's very good performance the sixth-placed Quilicura (0-6) lost94-81on the road to the higher-ranked (#3) Universidad de Concepcion in the Conferencia Centro. He scored 16 points, grabbed 6 boards, dished 4 assists and stole 3 balls in 27 minutes; quite an impressive performance considering it's only Young's second season in pro basketball. So far Quilicura lost all six games in the Regular Season. But the season just started, so everything may happen. It's Young's first year with the team. He has relatively good stats this season 11.2ppg, 6.5rpg, 2.2apg and 1.3spg in six games.
#4. Experienced Jay Washington (6'7''-C-81, played in 2001-04, plays pro in Philippines) managed to help Talk N Text Ka Tropa to win against the closely-ranked SM Beermen (6-5) 114-109 in the Filipino PBA in Wednesday night's game. He scored only 2 points. Talk N Text Ka Tropa (8-3) is placed third in the PBA. It was his team's first victory after three consecutive loses. They will play only one more game in the Regular Season. And that game will be critical. It's Washington's first season with the team. This year Washington averages 0.6ppg and 1.1rpg. He is a naturalized Filipino.
