† 2017 Big Ten Tournament winner Rankings from AP Poll

The 2016–17 NCAA Division I men's basketball season began on November 11, 2016. The first tournament was the 2K Sports Classic, and the season will end with the Final Four in Glendale, Arizona on April 3, 2017. Practices officially began on September 30, 2016.

The only rule change for this season is that coaches are now permitted to ask for timeouts in situations of inbounds on offense or defense. Coaches are still not permitted to call timeouts in live-ball situations.

Only one school joined a new conference for 2016–17:

Each of the 32 Division I athletic conferences ends its regular season with a single-elimination tournament. The team with the best regular-season record in each conference is given the number one seed in each tournament, with tiebreakers used as needed in the case of ties for the top seeding. The winners of these tournaments receive automatic invitations to the 2017 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament. This will be the first season in which the Ivy League holds a conference tournament.

Several teams changed coaches during and after the season.
