Default Simple VLOOKUP with NON ascending order

Morning folks: I am trying to do something very simple but I just can't seem
to get it to work the way I want! I have been searching for an answer for 2
days now!!!

On my STATS page I have a list of basketball players down a column (taken
from TEAM LIST page) and the next columns have their POINTS, REBOUNDS,
ASSISTS, etc. (taken from GAMES DATA page)
At the bottom, I want to see who has the most points: '=MAX(B3:B30)' and I
would like to show that players name next to the number returned from MAX.
The same for '=MIN(B3:B30)'
I think my problem is that player #1 may have a higher number than Player#23
and my calculation returns 'N/A', am I right thinking this? Am I getting
caught on some restrictions I don't know about?

Thanks for all your help!
Regards;
