2018 Big South Tournament winner

The 2017–18 Winthrop Eagles men's basketball team represents Winthrop University during the 2017–18 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Eagles, led by sixth-year head coach Pat Kelsey, play their home games at the Winthrop Coliseum in Rock Hill, South Carolina as members of the Big South Conference.

The Eagles finished the season 26–7, 15–3 in Big South play to finish in a tie for the regular season Big South championship. As the No. 1 seed in the Big South Tournament, they defeated Charleston Southern, Gardner–Webb, and Campbell to win the tournament championship. As a result, they received the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament, their first bid since 2010. In the NCAA Tournament, they lost in the first round to Butler.

After the season, head coach Pat Kelsey initially left Winthrop on March 21, 2017 to take the head coaching job at UMass, but backed out 2 days later for personal reasons and returned to the program.
