San Miguel Alab Pilipinas (under the corporate name Pilipinas Basketball Club, Inc. or PBCI) was a Filipino professional basketball team which played in the ASEAN Basketball League (ABL) under the sponsorship of San Miguel Corporation. The team was owned and managed by the sports talent management firm, Virtual Playground, headed by talent agents Dondon Monteverde and Charlie Dy. Alab Pilipinas is the fourth Philippine team to play in the ABL. "Alab" is a Filipino word that translates as "blaze" in English.

The team was originally known as Alab Pilipinas (2016-17 ABL season) as the fourth ABL team from the Philippines. From November 2017 to January 2018, it was known as Tanduay Alab Pilipinas, under the sponsorship of Tanduay Distillers, Inc.

The team disbanded in 2020 after the ABL shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
