PBA postpones All-Star Weekend in Davao due to security concerns
The PBA has postponed its All-Star Weekend, originally scheduled for May 1 to 4 in Davao del Norte, due to security concerns.
Commissioner Willie Marcial announced on Wednesday that the league is considering holding the event in Visayas after the midterm elections on May 12, citing unresolved political tensions and scheduling issues.
The PBA will not proceed with the All-Star Weekend if no suitable venue can be found within two weeks or by after Holy Week.
In previous years, Davao hosted the event twice in 2013 and 2018, both in Digos City.
This year's All-Star weekend was set to feature a revival of the Rookies-Sophomores-Juniors (RSJ) vs. Veterans event, but its future is now uncertain due to unresolved security issues.
