† 2018 Big 12 Tournament winner As of July 1, 2017; Rankings from AP Poll

The 2017–18 TCU Horned Frogs men's basketball team will represent Texas Christian University in the 2017–18 NCAA Division I men's basketball season, led by head coach Jamie Dixon in his second season at TCU. The Horned Frogs compete as members of the Big 12 Conference and play their home games at Schollmaier Arena in Fort Worth, Texas.

Previous season

In 2016, the Horned Frogs introduced Jamie Dixon, a former TCU letterman, as the new head men's basketball coach. IN his first season after leaving Pitt for his alma mater, Dixon led the Frogs to a 24–15 (6–12 Big 12) record. The Frogs' 6–12 record and seventh-place finish was their best league mark since joining the Big 12 in 2012. In the postseason, TCU defeated Oklahoma and Kansas in the Big 12 Tournament before losing in their first-ever Big 12 semifinal berth to Iowa State. They received an invitation to the National Invitation Tournament where they defeated Fresno State, Iowa, and Richmond to advance to the semifinals at Madison Square Garden. At MSG, they defeated UCF to advance to the NIT finals where they beat Georgia Tech to become the 2017 NIT champions.
