† 2011 Big East Tournament winner As of April 4, 2011[1] • Rankings from AP Poll

The 2010–11 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team represented Georgetown University in the 2010–2011 NCAA Division I basketball season. In November, the team played in and won the Charleston Classic tournament.^[2] During the February 23 game against the Cincinnati Bearcats, senior Chris Wright injured his hand, and later had surgery that kept him out of the final conference games. Without him, the Hoyas lost in their first game in the 2011 Big East Men's Basketball Tournament. The team ultimately received an at-large invitation as a 6 seed in the 2011 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament,^[3] where they lost in the second round to Virginia Commonwealth. They finished the season 21–11, 10–8 in Big East play.
