2019–20 Basilan Steel season

The 2019–20 Basilan Steel season was the second season of the franchise in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL). It is also the franchise's last season in the league before moving to the Pilipinas VisMin Super Cup in 2021.

The Steel were able to improve from their previous campaign after snatching their ninth win on September 17, surpassing their 7–18 record in win percentage. They would then win 11 of the remaining 13 games to finish the season 20–10 and finish as the third seed in the South Division.

Their playoff run began with a sweep against Iloilo followed by a 2–1 series victory over Bacoor City. In the division finals against the Davao Occidental Tigers, Basilan would win game 1 against the reigning division champions on opposing grounds before the Tigers tied the series in game 2. Following the one-year suspension due to the COVID-19 pandemic, game 3 was originally scheduled for March 10, 2021, but was postponed by a week due to a player being tested positive for the virus. By March 17, multiple members of the Basilan team had also been tested positive, thus the league decided to rule them out of the series, abruptly ending their season. Davao Occidental would eventually become champions in the national finals.

All of the team's home games this season were played at the Lamitan Capitol Gymnasium in Lamitan.
