The UMass Minutemen basketball team represents the University of Massachusetts Amherst in NCAA Division I men's college basketball. The team competes in the Mid-American Conference and plays its home games at the William D. Mullins Memorial Center on the Amherst campus.

The program is historically notable for its appearance in the 1996 NCAA tournament, where it reached the Final Four. This remains the deepest postseason run in the team's history, marking a significant achievement for the university's athletic program.

Recently, the men's team has been active in its non-conference schedule, generating news coverage for its performance in the early part of the season. Headlines have highlighted a multi-game winning streak, including a decisive victory in the Paradise Jam tournament, and efforts to build momentum with upcoming home games.
