# 2024 U Sports Men's Basketball Championship

The 2024 U Sports Men's Final 8 Basketball Tournament was held March 8–10, 2024, in Quebec City, Quebec, to determine a national champion for the 2023–24 U Sports men's basketball season. With both naming and presenting partners, the tournament was officially called the 2024 GreenShield U SPORTS Men's Final 8, presented by Michelob Ultra. Host and lowest seed Université Laval Rouge et Or won the championship title, the first in the program's history, beating the Queen's Gaels 77-71.

## Host

The tournament was hosted by Université Laval at the school's Amphithéâtre Desjardins, which has a seating capacity of 3,000 for basketball. This was the first time the school hosted the men's championship, while also being the first time the province of Quebec hosted.

## Participating teams

The seeding for teams was announced on March 3, 2024, with the Ottawa Gee-Gees being awarded the at-large berth. For the first time since 2002, the Carleton Ravens did not play in the national tournament, and so did not defend their 2023 title. Carleton has been a dominant force in the annual contest, having won 17 of the previous 20 national titles.
