Jakarta - Prawira Bandung coach David Singleton took a strategic step to ease Yudha Saputera's playing burden in the 2025 IBL by bringing in Brandis Raley-Ross in the second half of the season.
The recruitment of Raley-Ross was an effort to maintain team balance and reduce the pressure that Yudha had to bear in every match.
Based on statistical data on the IBL page, Yudha was recorded as the player with the most playing minutes at Prawira Bandung during the first half of IBL 2025. The Indonesian national team player has collected 425 playing minutes in 13 matches.
"That's Yudha. I believe he is the fittest player in the League," said the coach who is familiarly called Dave.
Despite his full confidence in Yudha's physical ability and consistency, Dave realizes the importance of playing minutes management. He does not want Yudha to be overworked, especially considering the length of the competition that still has to be played until the end of the season.
