Rankings from AP Poll

The 2012–13 Miami Hurricanes men's basketball team represented the University of Miami during the 2012–13 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Hurricanes, led by second-year head coach Jim Larrañaga, played their home games at the Bank United Center and were members of the Atlantic Coast Conference. With a veteran roster, the Hurricanes finished the regular season with a conference record of 15–3 and won the ACC regular season championship, marking the program's first-ever outright regular season conference championship.

The Hurricanes entered the ACC tournament as the top-seed and received a first-round bye. After defeating Boston College and NC State, they beat North Carolina to capture the 2013 ACC tournament championship and became the first ACC school other than Duke or North Carolina to win both the ACC regular season and tournament championships in the same season since the 1974 NC State team. The Hurricanes were selected as a 2-seed in the South Region of the 2013 NCAA tournament and beat 15-seed Pacific in the second round. The Hurricanes beat 7-seed Illinois in the third round to advance to the sweet sixteen where they lost to Marquette. They finished the season 29–7, their most victories in a season. They would tie this number of wins ten years later.
