Davao Occidental Tigers, also known as Davao Occidental Tigers – Cocolife due to sponsorship reasons, are a Filipino professional basketball team based in the province of Davao Occidental. The team competes in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League as a member of the league's South Division. They are the lone team based in the Davao Region.
The franchise was founded as an expansion team in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL) for its 2018–19 season.[1][2] Following their title in the 2021 MPBL Finals, they moved to the Pilipinas Super League (PSL) and became one of its founding members, before returning to the MPBL in 2024.
Despite being based in Davao Occidental, the team hasn't played any home games within the province. Instead, the team plays in arenas across Davao Region, more specifically the Metro Davao area.
The Davao Occidental Tigers are one of the more successful home-and-away teams in the country, with four Finals appearances across both the MPBL and PSL. Of those four appearances, the Tigers won the 2021 MPBL Finals and the 2022 Pilipinas Super League Finals.
