The 2007–08 Wake Forest Demon Deacons men's basketball team represented Wake Forest University in the 2007–08 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Demon Deacons, led by first-year head coach Dino Gaudio, played their games at Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum, and were members of the Atlantic Coast Conference.

In first season under their new head coach (who replaced former coach Skip Prosser, who died in the off-season), the Deacons lost leading scorer from 2006 to 2007, Kyle Visser, but brought in a good recruiting class (ranked 28th nationally by Scout.com),^[1] including guards Jeff Teague and Gary Clark, and forward James Johnson.
