The 2021–22 George Mason Patriots Men's basketball team represented George Mason University during the 2021–22 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The season was the 56th for the program, the first under head coach Kim English, and the ninth as members of the Atlantic 10 Conference. The Patriots played their home games at EagleBank Arena in Fairfax, Virginia.
In a season limited due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Patriots finished the 2020–21 season 13–9, 8–6 in A-10 play to finish in sixth place. They defeated George Washington in the second round of the A-10 tournament[1] before losing to Davidson in the quarterfinals.[2]
On March 16, 2021, the school fired head coach Dave Paulsen.[3] A week later, the school named Tennessee assistant Kim English the team's new head coach.[4]
