List of Southeastern Conference men's basketball champions

{{Short description|none}}

Below is a list of SEC Men's Basketball Champions and Award Winners.

Champions and Award Winners

Official SEC champions in bold. From 1933 to 1952, except 1935, the SEC only awarded a championship to the winner of the conference tournament. In 1935 and from 1953 to 1978, the SEC did not hold a conference tournament and awarded its championship to the team with the best conference winning percentage. Since 1979, the SEC has held a conference tournament but continues to award the SEC Championship to the team with the best conference winning percentage.

From the 1939 to 1950, the NCAA tournament did not guarantee bids to conferences, and the SEC champion only participated in four tournaments. Starting in 1951, the NCAA has guaranteed a bid to the SEC champion. From 1951 to 1974, the team with the best conference winning percentage was awarded the SEC's sole bid to the NCAA tournament. Two teams in the 1950s declined the bid after players were declared ineligible for the tournament by the NCAA, and four champions declined the bid between 1959 and 1962 due to segregationist policies banning the schools from playing teams with black players; in these cases the other co-champion or the runner-up represented the SEC in the NCAA tournament. In 1972 and 1974, two ties were broken by head-to-head results or rankings. In 1975, the NCAA expanded the tournament field and allowed multiple teams from each conference, making tiebreakers between co-champions unnecessary. Since 1979, the SEC Tournament Champion is awarded the SEC's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.

The SEC Player of the Year was first awarded in 1965.

For the years when the SEC held the conference tournament and did not officially award a regular season champion, this table uses the modern definition of the regular season championship of having the best winning percentage.
