The 2021–22 Ivy League men's basketball season marked the continuation of the annual tradition of competitive basketball among Ivy League members after the league did not play during the 2020–21 season. Previously, the tradition began when the league was formed during the 1956–57 season and its history extends to the predecessor Eastern Intercollegiate Basketball League, which was formed in 1902.

Princeton earned the league title after finishing the regular season 12–2 within the Ivy League. However, Yale earned the league's bid to the 2022 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament after defeating Pennsylvania, 67–61, in the semifinals and Princeton, 66–64, in the finals of the inaugural conference tournament.

Tosan Evbuomwan of Princeton was named Ivy League Men's Basketball Player of the Year.[1]
