The 2020–21 Northern State Wolves men's basketball team represented Northern State University in the 2020–21 NCAA Division II men's basketball season. The Wolves were led by second-year head coach Saul Phillips and played their home games at Wachs Arena in Aberdeen, South Dakota.[1] They competed as members of the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, their season was greatly shortened.

Previous season

[edit]

Following the departure of Paul Sather to North Dakota,[2] Saul Phillips was hired as the head coach of the Wolves.[3] During his first year, the Wolves went 26–6 (18–4 NSIC) and won both the NSIC regular-season championship and the NSIC tournament championship, the latter of which gave them the #4 seed in the 2020 NCAA Division II men's basketball tournament, which was eventually cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
