The 2009–10 Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team represented the University of Michigan during the 2009-10 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The team was coached by John Beilein and played its home games in Ann Arbor, Michigan at the Crisler Arena, which has a capacity of 13,751, for the forty-third consecutive year.{{vcite web|url=http://www.mgoblue.com/facilities/article.aspx?id=28648|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080524172649/http://www.mgoblue.com/facilities/article.aspx?id=28648|archive-date=May 24, 2008|title=Crisler Arena|access-date=November 15, 2008|date=August 14, 2007|publisher=University of Michigan & Host Interactive}} This season marked the team's ninety-third consecutive year as a member of the Big Ten Conference.{{vcite book|title=2007-08 Men's Basketball Media Guide|publisher=University of Michigan|page=190|year=2007}} The team finished the season with a 15–17 overall record and a 7–11 conference record, which was tied for seventh in the conference standings. It was seeded eighth in the single-elimination 2010 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament where it advanced one round. On October 16, Michigan was one of five Big Ten schools to begin its season by celebrating Midnight Madness.{{vcite web|url=http://www.bigtennetwork.com/sports/mbasketball/story.asp?list_id=47&story_id=3371914|title=Five teams host Midnight Madness on Friday|access-date=October 16, 2009|date=October 14, 2009|publisher=Big Ten Network}} {{Dead link|date=April 2012|bot=H3llBot}}{{vcite web|url=http://www.mgoblue.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/082009aab.html|title=Michigan Madness Slated for Oct. 16 at Crisler Arena|access-date=October 16, 2009|publisher=CBS Interactive|accessdate=October 16, 2009|archive-date=October 19, 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091019064429/http://www.mgoblue.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/082009aab.html}}

Following the University of Michigan basketball scandal, the team had completed serving a scholarship probation imposed in 2003 two years earlier. During the probation, the team had had only twelve scholarships to offer instead of the usual thirteen. However, Michigan continued to be prohibited from affiliation with implicated athletes (Chris Webber, Robert Traylor, Maurice Taylor, and Louis Bullock) until 2012, which meant, among other things, that the players could not help the university recruit.{{vcite web|url=https://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C02E4D6173FF93AA35756C0A9659C8B63|title=COLLEGES; N.C.A.A. Bars Michigan From Next Postseason|access-date=November 15, 2008|date=May 9, 2003|publisher=The New York Times Company|work=The New York Times|author=Hakim, Danny}} The team was expected to finish between third and fifth in the conference by most expert pollings. The team was led by a pair of Wooden Award preseason watchlist nominees: Manny Harris and DeShawn Sims. Harris, Sims and Zack Novak served as team captains.{{cite web|url=http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/mich/sports/m-baskbl/auto_pdf/bkm-all-time-accolades.pdf|title=University of Michigan Record Book: All-Time Accolades|publisher=CBS Interactive|access-date=March 20, 2011|archive-date=April 1, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110401053817/http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/mich/sports/m-baskbl/auto_pdf/bkm-all-time-accolades.pdf|url-status=dead}}

The team won two of its first three games against ranked opponents (Connecticut and Ohio State). However, the season was a disappointment that included two buzzer-beater losses to conference co-champions Ohio State and Michigan State on field goals by 2010 Big Ten Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year Evan Turner and 2009 Big Ten Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year Kalin Lucas. After starting the season 3–0, the team never again won three games in a row. The team was nationally ranked to start the season, but never reappeared in the national polls after the third week of the season. Michigan ended the year with a 7–11 conference record (tied for seventh) and a 15–17 overall regular season record. Turner's buzzer-beater came in the second round of the 2010 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament in which the eighth-seeded Wolverines lost by a point to the top-seeded Buckeyes.

At the conclusion of the regular season, Sims and Harris were named to the 2nd and 3rd All-Big Ten teams, respectively, by both conference coaches and the media. Following the Big Ten tournament both players were recognized as 2nd-team All-District selections by the National Association of Basketball Coaches.

Entering the season, Harris was regarded by some as the most highly rated player in the Big Ten. E.g., the FOX Sports preseason All-American listed him on its second team. It included Michigan State's Kalin Lucas on its third team, Purdue's Robbie Hummel on its fourth team and Ohio State's Evan Turner on its fifth team.{{vcite web|url=http://www.umhoops.com/2009/09/09/manny-harris-named-2nd-team-preseason-all-american/|title=Harris Named to Fox Sports Preseason All-American Team|access-date=April 11, 2010|date=September 9, 2009|publisher=UMhoops.com}} However, ESPN chose both Lucas and Turner to its preseason second-team All-American list, while Harris was not shown on a single ballot.{{vcite web|url=https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/preview2009/news/story?id=4651093|title=2009-10 ESPN.com All-America teams|access-date=November 14, 2009|date=November 13, 2009|publisher=ESPN.com}} Harris and Sims were named among the 50 preseason Wooden Award watch list nominees.{{vcite web|url=http://www.mgoblue.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/082009aaa.html|title=Harris, Sims Named Preseason Wooden Candidates|access-date=October 18, 2009|date=August 20, 2009|publisher=CBS Interactive|author=Wyrot, Tom|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091019064424/http://www.mgoblue.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/082009aaa.html|archive-date=October 19, 2009|url-status=dead}} Harris was also named to the preseason Naismith College Player of the Year watchlist.{{vcite web|url=http://www.naismithawards.com/PressBox/PressReleases/10292009PreseasonWatchlist/tabid/164/Default.aspx |title=Naismith Trophy 2009-10 Preseason Watch List Dominant With Upperclassmen |access-date=November 8, 2009 |date=October 29, 2009 |work=Naismith Award |author= |url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091111053620/http://www.naismithawards.com/PressBox/PressReleases/10292009PreseasonWatchlist/tabid/164/Default.aspx |archive-date=November 11, 2009 |df= }} The 24-member Big Ten media panel selected Harris as a first team preseason All-Big Ten team member.{{vcite web|url=http://www.bigten.org/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/102909aaa.html|title=Defending Big Ten Champion Michigan State Named Men's Basketball Preseason Favorite By Media: Reigning Big Ten Player of Year Kalin Lucas Tabbed Preseason Player of Year|access-date=October 30, 2009|date=October 29, 2009|publisher=CBS Interactive|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091101122508/http://www.bigten.org/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/102909aaa.html|archive-date=November 1, 2009}}
