The PBA Governors' Cup is one of the three conferences in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) season. It typically features teams competing in a single round-robin format, followed by playoffs to determine the champion. This conference is unique because it allows teams to hire one foreign player, known as an import, to enhance their competitiveness. The tournament usually takes place in the latter part of the year, often starting in August and concluding in December. The Governors' Cup has a rich history and is known for its exciting games and intense rivalries among teams, making it a highlight of the PBA season.
