# 2024–25 West Georgia Wolves men's basketball team

The 2024–25 West Georgia Wolves men's basketball team represented the University of West Georgia during the 2024–25 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Wolves, led by seventh-year head coach Dave Moore, played their home games at The Coliseum in Carrollton, Georgia as first-year members of the Atlantic Sun Conference.
This season marked West Georgia's first year of a four-year transition period from Division II to Division I. As a result, the Wolves are currently not eligible to participate in the NCAA tournament until the 2028–29 season. A pending change to transition rules, scheduled to be voted on by the Division I Council in January 2025, would reduce the transition period to three years.

## Previous season

The Wolves finished the 2023–24 season 27–6, 19–5 in GSC play to finish as Gulf South Conference regular season champions. They defeated Union, West Alabama, and Alabama–Huntsville to win the GSC tournament and earn the conference's automatic bid into the NCAA DII tournament. They received the #2 seed in the South regional, where they defeated conference foe Lee in the first round, before falling to Florida Southern in the regional semifinals.
