Yaroslav Korolev (Russian: Ярослав Королев; born May 7, 1987 in Moscow, Russian SFSR, Soviet Union (present-day Russia)) is a Russian professional basketball player.

He was selected 12th overall in the 2005 NBA Draft by the Los Angeles Clippers. Korolev played for CSKA Moscow in the Russian basketball league before joining the Clippers.
