The 2022–23 Lindenwood Lions men's basketball team represented Lindenwood University in the 2022–23 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Lions, led by fourth-year head coach Kyle Gerdeman, played their home games at Hyland Performance Arena in St. Charles, Missouri as members of the Ohio Valley Conference (OVC). They finished the season 11–21, 6–12 in OVC play, to finish in a tie for eighth place. As the No. 8 seed in the OVC tournament, they lost to Southeast Missouri State in the first round.

The season marked Lindenwood's first year of a four-year transition period from Division II to Division I. As a result, the Lions were not eligible for NCAA postseason play until the 2026–27 season.[1]

The Lions finished the 2021–22 season 12–17, 8–12 in Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) play, to finish tied for third place in the Central Division. They were defeated by William Jewell in the first round of the GLVC tournament.[2]
