Makati Super Crunch seasons

The 2018–19 Makati Super Crunch season was the inaugural season of the franchise in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL).

The expansion franchise, originally named the Makati Skyscrapers, finished the regular season with the best record among expansion teams with a 21–4 record, capping off with a 15-game winning streak after starting the season 6–4. Unfortunately, their playoff run would be cut short via an upset loss against the seventh-seeded Quezon City Capitals. The Super Crunch would lose in two games.

The Super Crunch did not play any home games within Makati this season. All of their designated home games were instead played at Ynares Sports Arena in Pasig with the exception of their 16th game in which Mandaluyong was the host team.
