Shooting Stars
The Shooting Stars commenced for the second consecutive year. There was one PBA courtside reporter, one government official, one sportswriter and a lucky fan. Team Yellow led by Tiebreaker Times sportswriter Justine Bacnis 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. The game also included a four-point line and a three-point dunk, similar to the earlier Blitz Game.
Rosters
The voting started on December 3 and ended on February 7. The final results were announced on February 21, with Mark Barroca of Magnolia Chicken Timplados Hotshots and Japeth Aguilar of Barangay Ginebra San Miguel emerging as the top vote-getters and thus are the two opposing captains during the All-Star Game.
Note: Hodge, Perkins, Tio and Trollano were selected by the coaches and media, while Yap was chosen by the City of Bacolod.
Draft
The PBA-All Star draft was held on February 26. A coin toss was first used to determine the head coaches for the teams, with Tim Cone going to Team Japeth and Jorge Gallent to Team Mark. In another coin toss, Team Japeth won the flip and earned the right to draft first.
Lineups
All of the reserve players, played the game as replacements to injured All-Stars, namely Tyler Tio and Scottie Thompson.
Christian Standhardinger was unable to play the game due to vomiting. However, the league didn't assign a replacement player for him.
Game
Team Japeth was leading most of the time, but Team Mark was able to come back because of their amazing perimeter shooting, in the last minute of the 4th Quarter, Robert Bolick made back-to-back Four Point Shots, one to cut the lead to 5 then made another while being fouled which makes it a potential 5-point play, then he makes the free throw which ties the game. The game ends in a tie 140-140 which happens for the first time in PBA All-Star History.
- All-Star Game MVP: Japeth Aguilar (Team Japeth) and Robert Bolick (Team Mark)
