The 2022–23 PBA season or PBA season 47 was the 47th season of the Philippine Basketball Association. For the first time in two seasons, the league returned to its regular three-conference format, starting with the Philippine Cup. The Commissioner's and Governors' Cups were the second and third conferences in this season.[1]
After the PBA adjusted its calendar again, the association's 47th season started on June 5, 2022, and ended on April 21, 2023. Also for the first time since 2018, the season spanned two calendar years.[2] The first activity of the season was the PBA season 47 draft, held on May 15, 2022.[3]
Changes from 2021:
With the relaxation of government restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the PBA has returned to playing to different Metro Manila venues.[7] The PBA plans to return to playing games in the provinces, plus an out-of-the-country game, during the Governors' Cup.[8]
Game 7 of the Commissioner's Cup finals was held at the Philippine Arena in Bocaue, Bulacan.[9]
Ultimately, during the Governors' Cup, only the 2023 PBA All-Star Weekend was held outside Metro Manila and Rizal, which was hosted by Passi, Iloilo.[10]
