Notes edit

  1. ^ Live on iWantTFC worldwide excluding Philippines and United States
  2. ^ a b For the Bay Area Dragons guest team, its entire roster is composed of non-Filipinos. For purposes of the import and the height-limit, all Chinese citizens (including Hong Kong nationals) are considered "locals", while non-Chinese are imports, and only one non-Chinese can play at a game. Aside from being guest in the PBA, they are a franchise team of the East Asia Super League (EASL). In the 2022–23 East Asia Super League, a team is allowed to have two non-Asian imports. The Dragons have two non-Asians on their roster, Canadian Andrew Nicholson and the American Myles Powell. The Dragons played each player for four consecutive games each, but chose which one of them to play with on their ninth games onwards.[5] The team chose Powell as the team's final import starting their ninth game,[6] but the team activated Nicholson during the start of the quarterfinals due to Powell's injury.[7] Eventually they chose Nicholson to be their import for the rest of the conference.[8] However, Nicholson sustained an injury during game 3 of the Finals which forced him to miss both games 4 and 5.[9] He was replaced by Powell for the final time during games 6 and 7.[10]
