Lauro "The Fox" Mumar (March 6, 1924 – December 20, 1990)[1] was a Filipino basketball player and later served as the national team head coach of India and the Philippines.

[citation needed] He later moved to Manila to play for the varsity team of Letran College where he led the squad nicknamed "Murder Inc." to the 1950 NCAA Philippines championship title.

Mumar was banned for life from playing for the national team by the Philippine Amateur Athletic Federation when he failed to join the rest of the 1954 FIBA World Championship national squad that left Manila for the United States where the team was set to play tune-up games.

This led to a national controversy where his ban was discussed in the House of Representatives, and it was found out that he was in Bohol waiting for pocket money from his parents, which never arrived to be able to go to the capital.

While he was at the helm, Meralco won the 1971 Manila Industrial Commercial Athletic Association title winning over Crispa in the final.
