Muling matutunghayahan ang maaksyong UAAP Basketball. Bubuksan sa darating na Sabado sa Araneta Coliseum ang UAAP Season 73, kasama ang walong kupunang sabik ng magbakbakan.
Ayon sa mga sports analysts, FEU Tamaraws ang kupunang dapat na abangan ngayong season dahil puno pa rin ng mga beteranong players ang kanilang lineup. Ang kampeon naman na Ateneo, aminadong mahihirapang maghabol ng three-peat pero sila ay desidido pa ring manalo. Magiging kapansin-pansin din ngayong season ang mga foreign players ng mga team. – TV Patrol
Although its been said many times that FEU is the strongest team on paper based on the current lineup and pre-season performances, the Tamaraws is keeping a low key while competing head on with reigning champion Ateneo Blue Eagles. FEU Head Coach Glenn Capacio reiterated in the UAAP press launch Monday (July 5) at the Gateway mall in Cubao, “We are not as strong (as the previous season) but we'll still play good basketball and aim for the Final 4. We'll just try our best and pipilitin na hindi mag-repeat ang Ateneo.”
