Experienced Jamaican-Canadian Jarred Ogungbemi-Jackson (178-PG-1991, agency: Slash Sports) put on an amazing game in the last round for Orleans and that’s him to receive a Hoops Agents ProB Player of the Week award for round 2.
The 31-year old playmaker had the game-high 27 points adding nine rebounds and two assists for Orleans in his team’s victory, helping them to edge out Saint Quentin (1-1) 67-63. Orleans is placed at 9th position in French ProB. Orleans 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 1-1 record. Ogungbemi-Jackson turned to be Orleans’ top player in his first season with the team.
The second most remarkable performance in last round’s games was young guard Leopold Delaunay (193-G-2001) of Vichy Clermont. Delaunay impressed basketball fans with a double-double of 14 points and 12 rebounds. Of course Vichy Clermont cruised to a 98-89 relatively comfortable win over Saint Vallier (1-1). The season is still at the very beginning and this victory may help a lot. Let’s wait for the next round. Delaunay is well-known by Vichy Clermont fans and he already established his position as one of team’s most reliable players.
The third best performed player last round was another Vichy Clermont’s star – American Tray Boyd III (193-G-1998). Boyd III got into 30-points club by scoring 32 points in the last round. He went also for eight assists. He was another key player of Vichy Clermont, helping his team with a 98-89 win against Saint Vallier (1-1). Vichy Clermont needs these victories very badly if they think about getting closer to top teams. Their record at this point is 1 victory and 1 lost game. Boyd III has a great season in France. After only 2 games, he made it on the list of the league’s leaders in points with 25.5ppg (best scorer).

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)
