50 Greatest Players in PBA History

The 50 Greatest Players in PBA History is a list of players chosen across three separate occasions in 2000, 2015, and 2025 to honor the 25th, 40th, and 50th anniversaries of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA), respectively, with the list expanding for each milestone.

The first set, known as the 25 Greatest Players, was awarded when the league celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2000. During its silver anniversary, a TV special was held at the Araneta Coliseum on April 9. In 2015, 15 players were added to the list to commemorate the league's 40th anniversary. The awarding was held at the Newport Performing Arts Theater at Resorts World Manila on April 8. The award was rechristened as FAB @ 40 (40th Greatest Players).

In 2025, the league added an additional 10 players to the list for the 50th anniversary, with the list renamed as the 50 Greatest Players. Similar to the previous two sets, there will be a pair of celebrations honoring the Greatest Players. The first was held on April 11 at Solaire Resort North to honor the ten new additions. The second will be held on October 5 for the opening ceremony of the 2025–26 PBA season, which will feature a reunion of all living Greatest Players.
