TV5 (Local) Aksyon TV International (International) (Barangay Ginebra San Miguel) (Alaska Aces) (Alaska Aces) | runner-up = Barangay Ginebra San Miguel The 2013 Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Commissioner's Cup was the second conference of the 2012–13 PBA season. The tournament began on February 8 and ended on May 19, 2013. The tournament is an import-laden format, which requires an import or a pure-foreign player for each team and with no height limit. From the semifinal round onwards, the tournament is sponsored by Cebuana Lhuillier.
Format
Due to the preparations of the Philippines men's national basketball team for the upcoming FIBA Asia Championship, the opening of Governors' Cup was moved on the second week of August, at the conclusion of the FIBA tournament. The Commissioner's Cup was extended until the last week of May and adapted the tournament format used during the Philippine Cup.
The tournament format for this conference was as follows:
- Two-round eliminations, with each team playing 14 games. The teams are divided into two groups on the basis of their rankings from the previous Philippine Cup.

- Alaska Aces (#4)
- Meralco Bolts (#5)
- Air21 Express (#8)

- Group B:

- San Mig Coffee Mixers (#3)
- Barangay Ginebra San Miguel (#6)
- Petron Blaze Boosters (#7)
- GlobalPort Batang Pier (#10)
- Group A:
- Top eight teams will advance to the quarterfinals. In case of tie, playoffs will be held only for the #2 and #8 seeds.
- Quarterfinals:
- QF1: #1 seed vs #8 seed (#1 seed twice-to-beat)
