    Justin Brownlee to reinforce Pelita Jaya in BCL Asia Qualifiers

    JAKARTA (Indonesia) - JB to Pelita Jaya confirmed.

    JAKARTA (Indonesia) - Justin Brownlee is set to reinforce Pelita Jaya Basketball Club in Round 1 of the Basketball Champions League Asia (BCL Asia) Qualifiers in April.

    The Philippines men's team star has been officially unveiled as the latest addition to the perennial Indonesian Basketball League contenders on Wednesday.

     

    This will be his return to the professional scene since suiting up for Barangay Ginebra San Miguel in the 2022-23 Philippine Basketball Association season.

    He joins a team looking to strike gold in the domestic league after a runner-up finish to Prawira Bandung last season.

    Together, they will beef up a roster featuring Indonesia men's team standouts such as Brandon Jawato, and Andakara Prastawa, to name a few.

    Brownlee most recently played for Gilas Pilipinas in the FIBA Asia Cup 2025 Qualifiers' opening window last February, powering his side to a dominant sweep of Hong Kong, China and Chinese Taipei through averages of 21.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, and 6.0 assists per game.
