The 1949–50 Baylor Bears men's basketball team represented the Baylor University as a member of the Southwest Conference (SWC) during the 1949–50 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. Led by 7th-year head coach Bill Henderson, the team played their home games at Marrs McLean Gymnasium in Waco, Texas.
After a February 3 loss to Texas A&M, the Bears were 8–11 overall and 3–4 in SWC games. They ran off five consecutive wins to close the regular season and tie for the conference title with an 8–4 record. Due to a season sweep of Arkansas, Baylor was selected to play in the 8-team NCAA tournament. The Bears defeated BYU before losing to the No.1 ranked, eventual National champion Bradley Braves.[1] Baylor would travel to New York City for the National consolation game, where they were defeated by No. 5 NC State to close the season with a 14–13 record.
This season marked the second Final Four for the Bears in three seasons (1948). Baylor would not return to the Final Four until winning the National championship in 2021.
