Previous season
Main article: 2019–20 Brown Bears men's basketball team

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ivy League chose not to conduct a season in 2020–21.[2][3] Therefore, the most recent season in which Brown fielded a men's basketball team was 2019–20, a year during which they finished 15–12, including an 8–6 record in Ivy League play.

The 2019–20 Bears finished fifth in the Ivy League's regular-season standings, meaning they did not qualify for the Ivy League tournament (which was eventually canceled regardless).

Notes
  1. According to the Brown Athletics website, Martin, Sorrentine, Gray, and Handelsman are, respectively, entering their 10th, 14th, 4th, and 3rd seasons at Brown in 2021–22.[1] However, this is only true if you count the 2020–21 season, which Brown did not participate in due to the Ivy League canceling all sports. Therefore, while Martin is technically in his 10th year as Brown head coach, 2021–22 is his 9th actual season; the same rule applies for the assistants as well.
