===Adoption by other leagues=== Two later pro leagues that rivaled the NBA adopted a modified version of the shot clock. The [[American Basketball League (1961β1963)|American Basketball League]] used a 30-second shot clock for its two years in existence {{nowrap|(1961β1963).}} The [[American Basketball Association]] also adopted a 30-second clock when it launched in {{nowrap|[[1967β68 ABA season|1967β68]],}} switching to the NBA's 24-second length for its final season {{nowrap|[[1975β76 ABA season|(1975β76)]].}} From its inception in [[1975 PBA season|1975]], the [[Philippine Basketball Association]] adopted a 25-second shot clock. This was because the shot clocks then installed at the league's main venues, the [[Araneta Coliseum]] and [[Rizal Memorial Coliseum]] (the latter no longer used by the league), could only be set at 5-second intervals. The league later adopted a 24-second clock starting from the [[1995 PBA season|1995 season]]. The [[Metropolitan Basketball Association]] in the Philippines used the 23-second clock from its maiden season in 1998. In Philippine college basketball, the [[NCAA Basketball Championship (Philippines)]] and the [[UAAP Basketball Championship]] adopted a 30-second clock, then switched to 24 seconds starting with the 2001β02 UAAP season 64, the first season to start after the FIBA rule change in 2001.{{Citation needed|date=December 2021}}
