The 2012–13 LSU Tigers basketball team represents Louisiana State University during the 2012–2013 college basketball season. The team's head coach is Johnny Jones, who is in his first season at LSU. Jones previously served as the head coach at the University of North Texas. Jones played in the 1981 Final Four as a freshman at Louisiana State University, and later served 12 seasons as an assistant coach at LSU under Dale Brown where the pair returned the 1986 Final Four. They play their home games at Pete Maravich Assembly Center as members of the Southeastern Conference.

The Tigers completed the 2011-2012 season with an overall record of 18-15 and a 7-9 record in conference play. After falling to the eventual national champions, the Kentucky Wildcats, in the second round of the SEC Tournament, LSU received a bid to the NIT Tournament, where they were defeated by the Oregon Ducks in the first round. LSU lost several major contributors at the end of the season, including 2nd team All-SEC center Justin Hamilton, who was selected 45th overall in the 2012 NBA Draft by the Philadelphia 76ers.
