PBA introduces 3x3 tournament in 45th season

The PBA will introduce a 3×3 basketball tournament in its 45th season.

Fourteen teams, including all twelve PBA teams and two guest squads Mighty Bond and Dunkin’ Donuts, will participate.

Unlike the traditional 5-on-5 format, there will be no draft for the 3×3 competition; teams are responsible for securing their own players.

Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas President Al Panlilio expressed gratitude for the PBA's initiative to support 3x3 basketball and improve the country’s world rankings.
