Eh kapag umabot tayo ng July, pa-finals na iyan, so most probably wala nang All-Star,&quot; said Marcial.&quot;Hindi sila pupuwede, &#x27;yung kausap namin,&quot; he added.Davao was the original host of the event on May 2-4, but &quot;security concerns&quot; prompted the league to postpone the festivities and find for another host.Marcial assured that the league is committed to contributing to the Players&#x27; Trust Fund—the beneficiary of the All-Star Game.&quot;Pero yung para sa Players&#x27; Trust Fund ibibigay pa rin namin,&quot; he said.
