The 2023–24 Bryant Bulldogs men's basketball team represented Bryant University during the 2023–24 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Bulldogs, led by first-year head coach Phil Martelli Jr., played their home games at the Chace Athletic Center in Smithfield, Rhode Island as members of the America East Conference.
On November 13, after being placed on leave in September, head coach Jared Grasso announced his resignation, with assistant coach Phil Martelli Jr. initially being named the interim head coach for the remainder of the 2023–24 season.[1] Two days later, the interim tag was removed from Martelli and he was officially named head coach.[2]
Previous season
The Bulldogs finished the 2022–23 season 17–13, 8–8 in America East play, for a three-way tie for fourth place.[3] They lost in the quarterfinals of the America East Tournament to New Hampshire.[4]
