In their recent IBL matchup, the Tangerang Hawks came up just short at home, falling 100-98 to Kesatria Bengawan Solo in a thriller.
Jeantal Cylla led the scoring with 28 points, while Darnell Cowart delivered a strong effort with almost a triple-double, 22 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists. Sulthan Fauzan added 17 points and Will Brown added 16 points, but their efforts just fell short.
Offensively, the Hawks shot well, hitting 49% from the field, including 38% from the perimeter and 86% from the free throw line, supported by their efficient ball movement (25 assists). Defensively, they controlled the boards 41-39, limiting Kesatria second chance opportunities through 25 defensive rebounds. However, key defensive lapses, 16 turnovers and a poor second quarter proved costly.
This loss put an end to their three game winning streak in IBL. Overall, the team averages 84.6 points per game, while dishing out 20.6 assists. Defensively, they record 43.7 rebounds and allow opponents to just 82.9 points per game.

Stephaun Branch led the scoring with 31 points and Travin Thibodeaux added 21 points. Kaleb Wesson added 18 points and 15 rebounds, a double-double.
Offensively, Borneo shot competitively, hitting 41% from the field, 32% from the perimeter and 78% from the free throw line.

Despite the loss, this performance underlined Borneo’s growth and competitiveness. They’ve now proven they can challenge the league’s top contenders. If they maintain this level of execution and defensive intensity, Borneo will be a dangerous opponent down the stretch.
