The Nebraska Cornhuskers men's basketball team competes as part of NCAA Division I, representing the University of Nebraska–Lincoln in the Big Ten Conference. Since it was founded in 1897, the program has appeared in eight NCAA Division I tournaments and twenty other national postseason tournaments. Nebraska has played its home games at Pinnacle Bank Arena since 2013.

Prior to the creation of the NCAA tournament, Nebraska was a Midwest power under head coaches Raymond G. Clapp and Ewald O. Stiehm. NU struggled through the post-World War II years, which included a stretch of twenty-eight years with just two winning seasons that stretched into the 1960s. Much of the team's modest modern-day success came during the fourteen-year tenure of Danny Nee, Nebraska's winningest head coach. Nee led the Cornhuskers to five of their eight NCAA Division I tournament appearances and won the 1996 NIT championship. Nebraska has reached the NCAA tournament just twice since Nee was fired in 2000, but won a second postseason title in 2025, the inaugural College Basketball Crown. The team has been coached by Fred Hoiberg since 2019.
