# 2022–23 North Carolina A&T Aggies men's basketball team

The 2022–23 North Carolina A&T Aggies men's basketball team represented North Carolina A&T State University in the 2022–23 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Aggies, led by interim head coach Phillip Shumpert, played their home games at the Corbett Sports Center in Greensboro, North Carolina as first-year members of the Colonial Athletic Association. They finished the season 13–18, 8–10 in CAA play, to finish in a tie for sixth place. They were defeated by Stony Brook in the second round of the CAA tournament.

## Previous season

The Aggies finished the 2021–22 season 12–20, 6–10 in Big South play, to finish in fifth place in the North Division. In the Big South tournament, they defeated Radford in the first round, before falling to top-seeded Longwood in the quarterfinals. This would be the team's only season as a member of the Big South Conference, as they moved to the Colonial Athletic Association, effective July 1, 2022. On August 18, the school announced the firing of head coach Willie Jones, after only two years at the helm. Assistant coach Phillip Shumpert will be the interim head coach for the 2022–23 season, as the school will look for a new head coach following the end of the season.
