JAKARTA (Indonesia) – When BCL Asia-East 2025 resumes in Jakarta from April 5 to 8, one thing is certain: the energy inside PJ Arena GMSB Kuningan will be electric.
This is Pelita Jaya's home turf. And if history tells us anything, it's that Indonesia's fans show up - and show out.
From the roaring crowds of FIBA Asia Cup 2022, where Timnas upset Saudi Arabia in the Group Phase 80-54, to the unforgettable noise in the game against defending champions Australia, the passion of Indonesian basketball fans is unmatched. Now, it's Pelita Jaya's turn to ride that wave.
Fresh off a dramatic comeback win over NS Matrix in Kuala Lumpur, Pelita Jaya arrive in Jakarta with momentum - and a mission.
They’ll face Bishrelt Metal (April 5), Taoyuan Pauian Pilots (April 6), and NS Matrix Deers (April 8) in a crucial three-game stretch that could define their path to the Final Four.
It won’t be easy. All three visiting teams have already shown their teeth. Bishrelt stunned NS Matrix in their opener. The Pilots escaped with a 2OT win over the same squad. And while NS Matrix are winless, they’ve come within inches of flipping each contest.
But Pelita Jaya have the X-factor: their crowd.
The players know it. The coaches know it. And after seeing what that home crowd can do on the international stage, their opponents know it, too.
In a competition where only the top two teams from each group will make the Final Four, every game counts. Every point matters. And every shout from the stands could tip the scale.
