The 45th season of the Philippine Basketball Association will start this coming March 8, 2020 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum. The first conference will have the debut match between the San Miguel Beermen and the Magnolia Hotshots Pambansang Manok.


San Miguel is the current 5-peat defending champion of the Philippine Cup and will try to defend their crown without June Mar Fajardo, Marcio Lassiter, and Terrence Romeo.

But before the opening game starts, LEO Awards for the 44th season will be given to all deserving individuals.

And as a PBA tradition, beautiful muses will be seen in the opening ceremony of the All-Filipino conference. The twelve (12) teams will parade their whole roster together with their muses.

Now see the complete elimination round schedule below. Please be noted that the schedule as posted by PBA is not yet completed. Some of the venues are declared TBA or "to be announced".
