The 2018–19 Nebraska Cornhuskers men's basketball team will represent the University of Nebraska in the 2018–19 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Cornhuskers will be led by seventh-year coach head coach Tim Miles and will play their home games at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln, Nebraska as members of the Big Ten Conference.

The Cornhuskers finished the 2017–18 season 22–11, 13–5 in Big Ten play to finish in a tie for fourth place. As the No. 4 seed in the Big Ten Tournament, they lost in the quarterfinals to Michigan. Despite winning 13 Big Ten games, the Cornhuskers did not receive a bid to the NCAA Tournament, but did receive a bid to the National Invitation Tournament. However, they lost in the first round of the NIT to Mississippi State.

On March 27, 2018, junior guard James Palmer Jr. announced that he would declare for the NBA draft, but not sign with an agent. Junior froward Issac Copeland Jr. also declared for the draft, but did not sign with an agent.

The 2018–19 season will mark the first time in Big Ten history that the teams will play a 20-game conference schedule, setting a precedent for all Division I basketball. The new schedule will also include a regional component to increase the frequency of games among teams in similar areas. Over the course of a six-year cycle (12 playing opportunities), in-state rivals will play each other 12 times, regional opponents will play 10 times, and all other teams will play nine times. Three in-state series will be guaranteed home-and-homes: Illinois and Northwestern, Indiana and Purdue, and Michigan and Michigan State will always play twice.
