The 2023–24 Virginia Tech Hokies men's basketball team represented Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University during the U.S. 2023–24 NCAA Division I men's basketball season . The Hokies were led by fifth-year head coach Mike Young and played their home games at Cassell Coliseum in Blacksburg, Virginia, as members of the Atlantic Coast Conference.
The Hokies started the season with five wins and two losses. The two losses came against South Carolina and in the final of the ESPN Events Invitational against nineteenth ranked Florida Atlantic. The Hokies defeated Iowa State and Boise State in order to reach the final. They followed that with a loss in the ACC–SEC Challenge at Auburn and then won their next four games, including their ACC opener against Louisville. They would lose four of their next five ACC games, including a rivalry loss to Virginia. The one win in this stretch was an upset of twenty-first ranked Clemson. The Hokies went 3–3 over the next six ACC games, with a win against NC State and a loss to seventh-ranked Duke. The Hokies stayed close to .500 in their next five games, winning two and losing three. A highlight was a win in the rivalry re-match with Virginia but they lost to seventh-ranked North Carolina. They finished the season strongly, winning their last three ACC games.
The Hokies finished the season 19–15, 10–10 in ACC play to finish in a tie for eighth place. As the eighth seed in the ACC tournament, they lost to ninth seed Florida State in the Second Round. They received an at-large bid to the National Invitation Tournament and were a third seed. They defeated Richmond in the First Round before losing to second-seed Ohio State in the Second Round to end their season.
