The Pioneros de Quintana Roo (Quintana Roo Pioneers in English) were a Mexican professional basketball team based in Cancún, México, playing in the Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional (LNBP). During the 2010–2011 season the team made it to the finals. They became runners-up after losing to the Toros de Nuevo Laredo.

The Pioneros requested a temporary leave from the league in August 2016.[1] The team was reported to have re-joined the LNBP in 2019, but this was later disallowed by the league due to unsatisfactory facilities.[2][3]
