The Stony Brook Seawolves men's basketball team is the intercollegiate men's basketball program representing Stony Brook University. The school competes in the Coastal Athletic Association in NCAA Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The team plays its home games at Island Federal Credit Union Arena, located on the university's campus in Stony Brook, New York.

Stony Brook entered the Division I level in 1999, making the NCAA tournament for the first time in 2016. The team was a member of the America East Conference before moving to the CAA in 2022. Geno Ford has been the team's head coach since 2019.

The Seawolves have won four regular season conference championships and have reached the 20-win mark nine times as a Division I program. Stony Brook's official student section is known as "The Red Zone" and was voted as the top student section in the America East conference in the 2014 Naismith Student Section of the Year competition.[2] In 2018, Jameel Warney became the first Stony Brook alumnus to play in the National Basketball Association (NBA).[3]
