The 1936–37 Washington Huskies men's basketball team represented the University of Washington for the 1936–37 NCAA college basketball season. Led by seventeenth-year head coach Hec Edmundson, the Huskies were members of the Pacific Coast Conference and played their home games on campus at the UW Pavilion in Seattle, Washington.

The Huskies were 15–10 overall in the regular season and 11–5 in conference play; tied for first in the Northern division. In the three-way playoff,[2] Washington lost at home to rival Washington State,[3] who went on to defeat Oregon in Pullman.[4]

The National Invitation Tournament (NIT) debuted the next year, and the NCAA tournament in 1939.
