The UAAP Season 84 men's basketball tournament is the basketball event of the University Athletic Association of the Philippines for its 2021–22 school year. This will be the first tournament since 2019, the year when the COVID-19 pandemic hit the Philippines. The women's, boys' and girls' basketball tournaments will not be held this season, also due to the pandemic.

Tournament format

The usual UAAP tournament format for tournaments having all eight teams will be followed:[1]

  • Double round eliminations; top four teams advance to the playoffs
  • If a team wins all elimination round games:
    • #1 seed advance to the finals outright
    • #2 seed advance to the second round of the stepladder semifinals with the twice-to-beat advantage; winner advances to the finals
    • #3 and #4 seeds advance to the first round of the stepladder semifinals in a one-game playoff; winner advances to the second round
  • If no team wins all elimination round games:
    • #1 seed with the twice-to-beat advantage vs #4 seed in the semifinals
    • #2 seed with the twice-to-beat advantage vs #3 seed in the semifinals
  • The finals is a best-of-three series.

Venue

The SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay hosted the opening ceremonies and all the games.[13] All games were held behind closed doors in a full bubble setup during the first four playing dates of the first round, meaning no fans were allowed inside the playing venue.[14] However, on April 5, 2022, which was the fifth playing date of the basketball tournament, the UAAP allowed fans in a limited capacity to watch live at the Mall of Asia Arena.[15]

Squads

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, teams were permitted to have 20 players in their rosters instead of the previous 16. The four additional players can be tapped only for COVID-related reasons.[16]

Imports

Each UAAP team can have one import, termed as "foreign student athletes" by the UAAP in the 16-man lineup, but can have as many in their reserve list.[17]
