The 2021–22 Houston Baptist Huskies men's basketball team represented Houston Baptist University, now known as Houston Christian University, in the 2021–22 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Huskies, led by 31st-year head coach Ron Cottrell, played their home games at Sharp Gymnasium in Houston, Texas as members of the Southland Conference. They finished the season 11–18, 6–8 in Southland play to finish in fifth place. They defeated Incarnate Word in the first round of the Southland tournament before losing to Texas A&M–Corpus Christi.

On September 21, 2022, the university announced that it had changed its name to Houston Christian University. The Huskies nickname was not affected.[1][2]
