The 1980 PBA season was the sixth season of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA).
The season was best remembered for the famous " Last 16 seconds" of the First Conference championship between U/tex Wranglers and Toyota Tamaraws. The season-ending tourney also marked Crispa's incredible 20-1 record in the All-Filipino Conference, winning their first 19 games in the tournament. Other highlights of the year was the controversial dismissal of Toyota head coach Fort Acuña, and Nicholas Stoodley/USA becoming the first foreign team to win a PBA title.
The three-point field goal was introduced in this season.
