JAKARTA - Dewa United Banten Basketball, a team that has only competed in the Indonesia Basketball League (IBL) since 2021, has high ambitions to win the title in the 2024 season. Although it has not had a dozen years of experience like other big teams, Dewa United has shown impressive quality in recent years.
In their first season in 2021, Dewa United finished fourth in the IBL final standings for the regular season. They were able to secure a place in the playoffs. As a debutant team, this achievement deserves appreciation, especially after successfully advancing to the semifinals, even though they finally lost to an experienced team, Pelita Jaya Bakrie Jakarta.
The following year, Dewa United Surabaya again penetrated the 2022 IBL playoffs and ended up in seventh place in the regular season. Even though they lost in the quarter-finals to Prawira Bandung, the failure did not damage the team's reputation.
Moving headquarters to Banten in the third year, Dewa United again ranked fourth in the 2023 IBL standings. Despite losing in the semifinals to Prawira Harum Bandung, this achievement marked the team's consistency in reaching the playoffs.
