2022 MAC tournament winner

The 2021–22 Miami RedHawks men's basketball team represented Miami University in the 2021–22 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The RedHawks, led by fifth-year head coach Jack Owens, played their home games at Millett Hall in Oxford, Ohio as members of the Mid-American Conference. They finished the season 14–18, 8–12 in MAC play to finish in seventh place. They lost in the quarterfinals of the MAC tournament to Kent State.
