The 2024–25 PBA Commissioner's Cup, also known as the 2024–25 Honda PBA Commissioner's Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the second conference of the 2024–25 PBA season of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). The 22nd edition of the Commissioner's Cup started on November 27, 2024, and ended on March 28, 2025. The tournament allowed teams to hire foreign players or imports with unlimited height limit.[1]

It was initially reported that the champions of this conference would represent the Philippines at the 2025 Basketball Champions League Asia,[2] before it was instead awarded to the Meralco Bolts as champions of the 2024 PBA Philippine Cup.[3] The PBA previously skipped the 2024 edition of the Asian continental club tournament.

Imports

Summarize
Perspective

The following is the list of imports, which had played for their respective teams at least once, with the returning imports in italics. Highlighted are the imports who stayed with their respective teams for the whole conference.

Guest team Eastern is also subjected to the same rules with the PBA making it choose between Cameron Clark or Chris McLaughlin as its designated import player,[5] although it also has other players born outside Hong Kong in its PBA roster.
