Experienced American-Mexican Joshua Ibarra (211-C-1995) had a great game in the last round for Dewa United Banten and that's him to receive a Hoops Agents Player of the Week award for round 19.
The 30-year old center had a double-double of 29 points and 19 rebounds, while his team beat Borneo (14-6) 97-91. The game was between two of the league's top four teams. Dewa United maintains the 4th position in Indonesian IBL. They would have been even better if they hadn't lost a few games earlier this season. Dewa United will need more victories to improve their 14-6 record. Ibarra just recently signed at Dewa United, being already a very valuable addition to the team. Houston Christian University graduate has very impressive stats this year. Ibarra is in league's top in rebounds (3rd best: 13.1rpg) and averages solid 1.3bpg and 61.9% FGP.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was young American forward Travin Thibodeaux (203-F-1996) of Borneo Hornbills. Thibodeaux impressed basketball fans with 35 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists. Bad luck as Borneo lost that game 91-97 to Dewa United (14-6). It was definitely game of the week between two contenders to the title. Borneo still maintains its place in the top 3 of the standings, even despite this loss. His team's 14-6 record is not bad at all. Thibodeaux is one of the most experienced players at Borneo and has a reputation of one of team's most reliable players. He belongs to the best scorers in the league with 25.9ppg (#2). His other stats are also decent: 9.3rpg and 3.7apg.

He was a key player of Pelita Jaya, leading his team to a 67-63 win against #2 ranked Satria Muda. Many experts and fans count Pelita Jaya as a contender for championship title. Another victory and another confirmation that they may be right. Just look at their record: 18 victories and only two lost games. They are currently at the very top of the standings.
