There will be only one (last) round of the Regular Season in IBL. Here is the last round review presented by Job Market.

IBL top team - Satria Muda (16-1) added another victory to their record on Thursday. This time they beat twelfth ranked NSH (5-13) in Jakarta 75-68.

At the losing side American point guard Shavar Newkirk (179-1996, college: St.Joseph's) responded with 27 points and 8 rebounds. NSH's coach Predrag Lukic rotated eleven players in this game, but that didn't help. Satria Muda have an impressive five-game winning streak. Defending champion maintains first position with 16-1 record. NSH at the other side dropped to the thirteenth place with 13 games lost. They share the position with Evos Bogor. Satria Muda are looking forward to face Rans Pik (#5) in Gor Merpati in the next round. NSH will play on the road against Bima Perkasa (#6) in Sakti and is hoping to prove to their fans that the loss was just an accident.
The game in Pontianak was also worth to mention about. Sixth ranked Bima Perkasa (12-6) played at the court of 7th ranked Bumi Borneo (10-9). Bima Perkasa managed to secure a 9-point victory 86-77. American Cameron Coleman (198-1992, college: York, NE, agency: Elevate Sports Alliance) notched a double-double by scoring 23 points, 12 rebounds and 5 assists to lead the effort and Ikram Fadhil supported him with 14 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists. Even 25 points and 5 rebounds by American point guard Randy Bell (193-1998, college: Dalton St.) did not help to save the game for Bumi Borneo. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Bima Perkasa maintains sixth position with 12-6 record. Bumi Borneo lost third consecutive game.

WBS - Evos Bogor 64-62

Very expected game in Jakarta where 14th ranked Evos Bogor (5-13) was edged by ninth ranked WBS (8-9) 64-62 on Thursday.
