Naturalized British V.Islands Center Lester Prosper (209-C-1988, agency: YoungGroup Unlimited) put on an amazing game in the last round for second-ranked Dewa United Banten, receiving a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 12.
The 36-year old player had a double-double of 32 points and 17 rebounds, while his team beat Rajawali (#14, 0-15), the league's bottom-ranked team 72-63. Dewa United is placed at 2nd position in Indonesian IBL. They are still close to the very top. Dewa United would have been even better if they kept winning the games like in the last round. They have a solid 13-3 record. In the team's last game Prosper had a remarkable four three-pointers out of 9 attempts. It's his second year at Dewa United and it's hard to imagine this team without him. Lester Prosper averages this season 17.9ppg and 10.1rpg.

The second best player in last round's games was another Dewa United's star - young Dominican Rep. Gelvis Solano (185-PG-1994). Solano had a very good evening with a double-double of 22 points and 11 assists. Of course Dewa United Banten cruised to a 94-87 relatively comfortable win over the lower-ranked Prawira (#8, 8-6). This victory allowed Dewa United to move up to second position in the standings. His team lost just three games this season, while they won 13 matches. Solano is one of the most experienced players at Dewa United and similarly like Lester Prosper has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players.

Third on the list of top players last round was American forward Bobby Arthur-Williams (201-F-1997, agency: Starting 5) of Bali United (#12). Arthur-Williams showcased his all-around game by recording 23 points, 14 rebounds (!!!) and 4 assists in the last round. He was a key player of Bali Utd., leading his team to a 80-76 win against the higher-ranked Borneo (#9, 7-9). Bali Utd. can only dream about fighting for top spots in the league. They have rather bad season and 3-12 record places them close to the bottom of the standings. Too bad for Arthur-Williams he does not play for a better team. But maybe if he did, his season stats would not be that high. Arthur-Williams has a very solid season. In 15 games in Indonesia he scored 16.1ppg.
