Rankings from AP Poll

The 2023–24 USC Trojans men's basketball team represented the University of Southern California during the 2023–24 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Trojans were led by 11th-year head coach Andy Enfield and played their home games at the Galen Center for the 17th season in Los Angeles, California as members of the Pac-12 Conference. They finished the season 15–18, 8–12 in Pac-12 play to finish in a three-way tie for eighth place. As the No. 8 seed in the Pac-12 tournament, they defeated Washington in the first round before losing to Arizona.

On April 1, 2024, head coach Andy Enfield left the school to become the head coach at SMU.[1] On April 5, the school named Arkansas head coach Eric Musselman the team's new head coach.[2]

The season marked the team's last season as members of the Pac-12 Conference before joining the Big Ten Conference on July 1, 2024.
