Rankings from AP poll

The 2022 ACC men's basketball tournament was the postseason men's basketball tournament for the 2021–22 Atlantic Coast Conference men's basketball season. It was held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, during March 8–12, 2022.[1] The 2022 tournament was the 69th annual edition of the tournament. The Virginia Tech Hokies won the tournament, their first ACC Tournament title and only their second conference tournament title in program history, receiving the conference's automatic bid to the 2022 NCAA tournament. The Hokies were the second ACC champion to win four tournament games to secure the title and were the lowest overall seed to win the title,[2] until NC State won the 2024 tournament as a 10-seed two years later.

Seeds[edit]

All 15 ACC teams participate in the tournament. Teams were seeded by conference record, with a tiebreaker system to seed teams that finished with identical conference records.[3] Duke secured the regular season title and the first overall seed. Notre Dame, North Carolina, and Miami were the other teams to secure double-byes.[4]
