The 2024–25 Arkansas–Pine Bluff Golden Lions men's basketball team represents the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff during the 2024–25 NCAA Division I men's basketball season.

Previous season

[edit]

The Golden Lions finished the 2023–24 season 13–18, 8–10 in SWAC play, to finish in a tie for eighth place.[1] Due to a tiebreaking clause, they failed to qualify for the SWAC tournament, as only the top eight teams are eligible to compete.[2]
