NAGDIWANG ng ika-40 taong kaarawan ang Philippine Basketball Association, ang pinakamatandang pay-for-play league sa Asya, nitong Miyerkules.
Isa sa naging highlight ng selebrasyon ay ay ang ball na pinamagatan na “Fab @ 40″ na ginawa sa Newport Performing Arts Theater sa Resorts World Manila sa Pasay City.
Nagsama-sama ang mga PBA players, kapwa mga aktibo at retirado, kasama ang kanilang mga partners sa buhay, suot ang kanilang formal attire.
Hinirang din sa okasyon ang 15 new players sa Greatest Players’ list.
