The 2017–18 Oakland Golden Grizzlies men's basketball team represented Oakland University (OU) during the 2017–18 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Golden Grizzlies were led by 34th-year head coach Greg Kampe and played their home games at the Athletics Center O'rena in Rochester, Michigan as members of the Horizon League.
Oakland made a three-point field goal in every game of the season, increasing their steak to 937 consecutive games, the eighth-longest active NCAA Division I streak (at the time). They last finished a game without a three-pointer on January 30, 1988.[1]
Previous season
The Golden Grizzlies finished the 2016–17 season 25–9, 14–4 in Horizon League play to win a share for the Horizon League regular season championship.[2] As the No. 1 seed in the Horizon League tournament, they were upset in the quarterfinals by Youngstown State.[3] As a conference champion and No. 1 seed who failed to win their conference tournament, they received an automatic bid to the National Invitation Tournament where they defeated Clemson[4] in the first round before losing to Richmond in the second round.[5]
Off-season

Brock was named to the Horizon League's All-Defensive Team and All-Freshman Team.[6] Senior guard Stevie Clark also left the team, transferring to Louisiana State University in Shreveport.[7]
