The 2012 Men's Central American and Caribbean Basketball Championship, also known as 2012 Centrobasket, is the regional championship of FIBA Americas for Central America and Caribbean subzone. The top 4 teams qualify for the 2013 FIBA Americas Championship.

In 2013, FIBA suspended the Panamanian Basketball Federation "for many problems that Panama has been going through for several years due to conflicts of interest between two Directives that manifest hold the same authority," as announced by FIBA Secretary-General Patrick Baumann. This means Panama's "national teams and clubs and referees, cannot participate in any international competition."
