Dewa United Banten coach Pablo Favarel continued to praise his players despite losing 85-89 against Pelita Jaya Jakarta in the 2025 Indonesian Basketball League (IBL) match at Dewa United Arena, Tangerang evening.
He explained that Kaleb Ramot Gemilang and his friends had shown a high fighting spirit to fight the 2024 IBL champions, in order to seize the throne of the final standings this season.
"I want to appreciate the players for the great effort they showed tonight, because we were leading for almost 32 minutes, even though after that we lost control a little bit in the fourth quarter," Favarel said after the game.
The Argentine coach further stated that his players could not control the flow of the game for long, so that the opponent could quickly take advantage of the situation.
