Sunday events
Shooting Stars
The Shooting Stars returned for the first time since 2019 with a different format. There was one PBA courtside reporter, one government official, one sportswriter and a lucky fan. Team Red led by courtside reporter Apple David won the Shooting Stars.
All-Star Game
The format of the all-star game was patterned after the NBA's version, wherein fans voted up to 24 players and two coaches. The two players with the highest number of votes became the team captains and selected their teammates via draft.[16] The game also introduced a four-point line and a three-point dunk, similar to the earlier Blitz Game.[12]
Rosters
The voting started on January 25 and ended on February 15.[17] The final results were announced on February 17, with Barangay Ginebra San Miguel teammates Japeth Aguilar and Scottie Thompson emerging as the top vote-getters and thus are the two opposing captains during the All-Star Game.[18]
The 25th up to the 28th-ranked vote-getters are named as the all-star reserve. They will replace the top 24 players in case a player misses the game due to injury.[18] They are not officially All-Stars unless they actually play the game.
Draft
The PBA-All Star draft was held on February 20.[18] A coin toss was first used to determine the head coaches for the teams, with Tim Cone going to Team Japeth and Yeng Guiao to Team Scottie.[19] In another coin toss, Team Scottie won the flip and earned the right to draft first.[20]
Game
Prior to the game, Team Japeth won the traditional dance-off.[23]
