The 2021–22 Texas Southern Tigers basketball team represents Texas Southern University during the 2021–22 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Tigers are led by fourth-year head coach Johnny Jones and play their home games at the Health and Physical Education Arena in Houston, Texas, as members of the West Division of the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC).

Previous season

In a season limited due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Tigers finished the 2020–21 season 17–9 overall, 10–3 in SWAC play, to finish third place in the conference.[1] The Tigers defeated Alcorn State, Jackson State, and Prairie View A&M to win the SWAC Tournament, their ninth SWAC championship.[2] As a result, the Tigers received the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament as the No. 16 seed in the East region. There they lost to No. 1-seeded Michigan in the First Round.[3]
