† 2024 ACC tournament winner As of January 12, 2024 Rankings from AP Poll |
The 2023–24 Syracuse Orange men's basketball team represents Syracuse University during the 2023–24 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Orange are led by first-year head coach Adrian Autry and play their home games at JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse, New York as eleventh-year members of the Atlantic Coast Conference.
Previous season
The Orange finished the 2022–23 season 17–15, 10–10 in ACC play to finish in a tie for eighth place. As the eighth seed in the ACC tournament, they lost to Wake Forest in the second round. This was the second year in a row that Syracuse did not qualify for any post season tournament, a first in Boeheim's 47-year tenure.
This season marked the final season coached by long–time head coach Jim Boeheim, who was replaced following the season by former assistant coach Adrian Autry.[1]
