The Arkansas Razorbacks men's basketball team is the NCAA Division I program representing the University of Arkansas. Competing in the Southeastern Conference (SEC), the team plays its home games at Bud Walton Arena in Fayetteville and is currently coached by John Calipari. Colloquially known as "the Hogs," the program is a historically significant competitor in college basketball.

The Razorbacks are notable as a top-tier program with a .641 all-time winning percentage, placing them among the top twenty-five in NCAA history. Their legacy includes six Final Four appearances and winning the national championship in 1994 under coach Nolan Richardson. The team is consistently recognized for its strong tournament performance and historical success relative to the number of seasons played.

Recently, the team has been in the news following a narrow victory in its season opener. As the 21st-ranked team, Arkansas rallied to defeat Winthrop with a final score of 84-83. The game, in which a player scored 26 points, was also marred by an on-court scuffle between players, drawing additional media attention to the contest and the team's start to the new season.
