A seventh round was held, but NorthPort passed, thus ending the draft.
The PBA draft combine for this edition of the draft was held at the Ynares Sports Arena in Pasig from July 10 to 11, with 70 applicants expected to attend.[15] 62 of the 70 showed up to the two-day event, with several unable to make it due to commitments with Strong Group Athletics (such as RJ Abarrientos and Dave Ildefonso) or were still in the US (such as Sedrick Barefield and Evan Nelle).[16] Jonnel Policarpio was named the draft combine MVP as his team won the mini-tournament, and he, Justine Baltazar, Brandon Ramirez, Kurt Reyson, and Jordan Bartlett were named to the Mythical Five.[17]
Prior to the draft, the following trades were made and resulted in exchanges of draft picks between teams. Converge retained the right to Alaska's second-round picks.
Post-draft trades are made after the draft begins. These trades are usually not confirmed until the next day.
