At the match of the 21st round between Mornar and Krka, Derek Needham achieved 12 points, 11 assists, 3 rebounds, 3 steals and a valuation of 27 in 30 minutes spent on court. He had the highest valuation of the round in the ABA League, together with Domagoj Vuković and Muhammed Ahmed of Zadar.
However, the fact that Derek Needham did not use his quality just to rise to the top of the statistical categories, but also helped his team to beat Krka, is what earned him the MVP of the round honour.
