† 2023 SEC tournament winner As of April 2, 2023 Rankings from AP poll

The 2022–23 Ole Miss Rebels women's basketball team represented the University of Mississippi during the 2022–23 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Rebels, led by fifth-year head coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin, played their home games at The Sandy and John Black Pavilion at Ole Miss and competed as members of the Southeastern Conference (SEC). They finished 25-9 and had near-upsets over LSU on the road and then-No. 1 South Carolina at home (they only lost 64-57 in overtime); they earned the 4th seed in the SEC Tournament, losing to South Carolina in the semifinals by a score of 80-51. The Rebels were selected to the NCAA Tournament in the Seattle regional, defeating Gonzaga 71-48 in the first round. They then advanced to the second round where they had a big upset over 1-seed Stanford, winning 54-49 to advance to the Sweet Sixteen for just the second time in program history (They had previously made it that far in 2007, when Carol Ross coached the team to the Elite Eight). Coincidentally Cleveland would host The Women's Final Four in 2024. They lost to Louisville 72-62 and finished the season ranked #22 in the Coaches Poll.

Previous season

The Rebels finished the season 23–9 (10–6 SEC) and received an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament, where they lost to South Dakota in the First Round.
