Here’s a look at the five hottest players in UH Nation from the past week, based on PPV.

1. Marcus Bradley +15,398,794

Bradley had 70 points and 28 rebounds in his last game in the Laguna Draft League. I don’t really need to say anything else. If you want more detail, here’s a full article about that performance.

2. Chase Hamilton +15,209,076

Hamilton has been incredibly efficient this season in the Plano Open League, averaging 13.7 points on 63% shooting from the field, and he’s coming off his best performance of the season. In a 132-78 win for Nike, Hamilton shot 12-14 from the field and scored a season-high 27 points. To add to the scoring, Hamilton had season-highs in rebounds and assists as well, as he had 12 boards and 10 assists to record the first triple-double of his career.

3. Kenny Laguerre +14,924,498

Laguerre has been on a tear in his past two games in the Champions Open League, as he’s averaged 31 points and 15 rebounds in that span. He’s also shot a combined 26-34 (76%) from the field in those two games. Unfortunately for Laguerre, both of these performances came in losses, as 4 ‘Tone has lost their last three games.

4. Chukwuemeka Ogbonna +14,734,780

Ogbonna, like most of the players on this list, has been incredible in his last two games, but he’s really been dominant the entire season in the Austin Open League. He’s averaging 34.5 points per game while shooting 57% from the field and 43% from deep, and those numbers don’t match what he’s done recently. In his last two games, he’s scored 45 points per game while shooting 58% from the field. He’s also significantly upped his rebounding, as he’s averaged 12 per game compared to 3.8 per game in his first six games this season.

5. Jabree Jackson +12,964,077

Jackson put up season-highs in points, rebounds and assists in his last game in the Mount Laurel Draft League, as he put up 52/10/15 for the first triple-double of his career. A big reason why he was able to score 52 points was that he shot 10-14 from 3-point range, which is the best shooting performance he’s had this season. That’s saying something, as Jackson has shot 49% from deep all season.
