The 2022–23 Oklahoma Sooners men's basketball team represented the University of Oklahoma during the 2022–23 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The team was led by head coach Porter Moser in his second year and played their home games at Lloyd Noble Center in Norman, Oklahoma, as members of the Big 12 Conference.

The Sooners finished the 2021–22 season 19–16, 7–11 in Big 12 Play to finish in eighth place. They defeated Baylor in the quarterfinals of the Big 12 tournament before losing in the semifinals to Texas Tech. They were one of the last four teams not selected for the NCAA tournament.
