# 2021–22 Brown Bears men's basketball team

The 2021–22 Brown Bears men's basketball team represented Brown University in the 2021–22 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Bears, led by ninth-year head coach Mike Martin, played their home games at the Paul Bailey Pizzitola Memorial Sports Center in Providence, Rhode Island, and competed as members of the Ivy League.

## Previous season

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ivy League chose not to conduct a season in 2020–21. Therefore, the most recent season in which Brown fielded a men's basketball team was 2019–20, a year during which they finished 15–12, including an 8–6 record in Ivy League play.
The 2019–20 Bears finished fifth in the Ivy League's regular-season standings, meaning they did not qualify for the Ivy League tournament (which was eventually canceled regardless).
