Round 3 of NBL23 included some major performances from NBL1 superstars, check out each stand-out player from the past round below.

Dejan Vasiljevic

On Friday night Diamond Valley Eagles superstar Dejan Vasiljevic had a massive performance at home against the Taipans, he dropped 20 points as the game's leading scorer shooting 40 percent from the field.

DJ averaged 18 points over Round 3 with seven three-pointers, the NBL1 South First-Teamer should only get better from here. Alongside the NBL1 North MVP Kouat Noi, the reigning champions have plenty of NBL1 talent to carry them throughout the season.

DJ Mitchell

The NBL1 North champion DJ Mitchell has arguably been the Brisbane Bullets' best player this season so far. Mitchell is averaging 10.5 points per game and had a massive performance against the Sydney Kings on Sunday.

He led the team in scoring with 20 points (3/4 from outside), 10 rebounds, two assists and two blocks. The 25-year-old has the aathleticism of an NBL star and if he continues his hot shooting, the Bullets may turn around their season.

Fabijan Krslovic

NW Tasmania star Fabijan Krslovic was crucial to the JackJumpers win against Melbourne United on Sunday. In the Semi-Finals rematch, Krslovic scored 13 points and repeatedly hit timely shots to keep Melbourne at arms length.

Devondrick Walker

The NBL1 West MVP has fit in seamlessly with the Bullets. Walker is averaging 9.7 points and has taken the most three-point attempts for Brisbane, shooting 39 percent – on a team that includes Tyler Johnson and Nathan Sobey.

The Bullets are currently 0-4, but Mitchell and Walker have been their bright spots this season. Can Brisbane turn their luck around? Tune in on Saturday night at 5:30pm AEDT as they take on the South East Melbourne Phoenix on ESPN and Kayo Sports.
