The 2023–24 Saint Peter's Peacocks men's basketball team represented Saint Peter's University during the 2023–24 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Peacocks, led by second-year head coach Bashir Mason, played their home games at the Run Baby Run Arena in Jersey City, New Jersey, as members of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference. They finished the season 19–14, 12–8 in MAAC play to finish in a tie for third place. As the No. 5 seed in the MAAC Tournament, they defeated Rider, Quinnipiac, and Fairfield to win the MAAC tournament championship, as a result, they received the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament for the fifth time in school history, and second time in 3 years.
