The 2021–22 Stony Brook Seawolves men's basketball team represented Stony Brook University in the 2021–22 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. They played their home games at the Island Federal Credit Union Arena in Stony Brook, New York and were led by third-year head coach Geno Ford. They competed as members of the America East Conference.

The 2021–22 season was the program's last season as an America East member. Stony Brook will join the Colonial Athletic Association on July 1, 2022.[1] However they announced Stony Brook was not eligible for the America East conference tournament that season.
