2022–23 Pac-12 Conference men's basketball season
Sports season
The 2022–23 Pac-12 Conference men's basketball season began with practices in October followed by the 2022–23 NCAA Division I men's basketball season which started on November 7, 2022. Conference play began in December 2022. This was the eleventh season under the Pac–12 Conference name and the 64th since the current Pac-12 charter was established in 1959. Because the Pac-12 includes the history of the Pacific Coast Conference , which existed from 1915 to 1959, in its own history, this was the 108th season of Pac-12 men's basketball.
The Pac-12 tournament took place in March 2023 at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada .
