The concept for a PBA 3x3 league was proposed by Terrafirma governor Bobby Rosales in an annual board meeting. PBA 3x3 is proposed as a stand-alone program, similar to the PBA D-League which means that the 3x3 league is distinct from the main 5-a-side men's professional league of the PBA. The PBA had prior involvement in 3x3. In 2014 and 2015, it has allowed some of its players to join Philippine-based teams to participate in masters to ...
