{{2020–21 Horizon League men's basketball standings}}

The 2020–21 Wright State Raiders men's basketball team represented Wright State University in the 2020–21 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Raiders, led by fifth-year head coach Scott Nagy, played their home games at the Nutter Center in Fairborn, Ohio as members of the Horizon League.

Previous season

The Raiders finished the 2019–20 season 25–7, 15–3 in Horizon League play to be regular season Horizon League champions. They lost in the semifinals of the Horizon League tournament to UIC. As regular season league champions who failed to win their league tournament, they received an automatic bid to the National Invitation Tournament. However, the NIT, and all other postseason tournament, were cancelled amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
