[1] This was the first PBA All-Star weekend since 2019 as the event has not been held since due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Team Red led by courtside reporter Apple David won the Shooting Stars.
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.
[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.
[20] All of the reserve players, except Jeff Chan, eventually played during the game as replacements to injured All-Stars, namely team captain Japeth Aguilar, LA Tenorio, Terrence Romeo, and Mikey Williams.
Jeff Chan, despite being in the reserve team, begged off from the game and was replaced by Alex Cabagnot.
June Mar Fajardo was unable to play the game due to injury and was replaced by Raymond Almazan.
Reserve Gabe Norwood was also unable to play the game due to injury and was replaced by Arwind Santos.
