† 2017 CAA Tournament winner As of December 1, 2016; Rankings from AP Poll

The 2016–17 William & Mary Tribe men's basketball team represents the College of William & Mary during the current 2016–17 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Tribe are coached by fourteenth year head coach Tony Shaver. The team plays its home games at Kaplan Arena and will remain members of the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA). This is the 112th season of the collegiate basketball program at William & Mary.

The Tribe will look to return to the post-season for the first time since 2014–15, where they lost to Tulsa in the first round of the 2015 NIT.

Previous season

The Tribe finished the season 20–11, 11–7 in CAA play to finish in a three way tie for third place. They advanced to the semifinals of the CAA Tournament where they lost Hofstra. Despite again securing twenty wins for the season, the Tribe failed to secure back-to-back postseason tournament bids for the first time in program history. Along with the 2013–14 and 2014–15 seasons, this was only the second time in program history that William & Mary won twenty games during three consecutive seasons.
