The 2007–08 Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team represented the University of Michigan in intercollegiate college basketball during the 2007–08 season. The team played its home games in the Crisler Arena in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and was a member of the Big Ten Conference. Under the direction of head coach John Beilein, the team finished tied for ninth in the Big Ten Conference. The team earned an eighth seed and advanced to the second round of the 2008 Big Ten Conference Men's Basketball Tournament. The team failed to earn an invitation to either the 2008 National Invitation Tournament or the 2008 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament. The team was unranked for all eighteen weeks of Associated Press Top Twenty-Five Poll, and ended the season unranked in the final USA Today/CNN Poll. Ron Coleman served as team captain, and Manny Harris earned team MVP honors.

The team set the Big Ten conference, single-season record for three point field goals attempted in conference games with 434. The team would rebreak this record the following season.

Ekpe Udoh won the Big Ten Conference statistical championships in blocked shots with a 2.67 conference game average and a 2.88 all game average. He led the team to the Conference statistical championship with a 4.28 team average in conference games. Udoh would later transfer to Baylor University and, as a junior, lead the Big 12 Conference in blocked shots as well.
