The Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team is the intercollegiate men's basketball program representing the University of Michigan. The school competes in the Big Ten Conference in Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), and play their home games at Crisler Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The Wolverines have won two NCAA Championships, three National Invitation Tournaments (NIT), 16 Big Ten regular season titles and four Big Ten tournaments. One NIT title and one Big Ten tournament were later vacated by the NCAA due to sanctions.

Michigan has had 36 All-Americans (1st, 2nd or 3rd team), on 49 total selections. Nine of these have been consensus first-team All-Americans, which are Cazzie Russell (twice), Rickey Green, Gary Grant, Chris Webber, Trey Burke, Yaxel Lendeborg, as well as Harry Kipke, Richard Doyle and Bennie Oosterbaan (twice), who were retroactively selected by the Helms Athletic Foundation. Twelve players have been honored as All-Americans at least twice, including Russell as the only three-time All-American.
