The 2023–24 Richmond Spiders men's basketball team is representing the University of Richmond during the 2023–24 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. They are led by 19th-year head coach Chris Mooney and play their home games at the Robins Center as members of the Atlantic 10 Conference.

Mooney returns to the bench after missing the final six games of the 2022–23 season due to heart surgery to address an aneurysm in his ascending aorta. Assistant coach and former Richmond player Peter Thomas served as interim head coach in Mooney's absence, and Mooney returned to his position after the conclusion of the season.

Previous season

The Spiders finished the 2022–23 season 15–18, 7–11 in Atlantic 10 play to finish in 11th place. The 11-seed Spiders defeated the 12-seed UMass Minutemen in the first round of the Atlantic 10 tournament before falling to the 5-seed George Mason Patriots to end their season.

Coaching staff changes

In June 2023, assistant coach Peter Thomas was elevated to the role of associate head coach. Thomas had served as interim head coach for the final few weeks of the 2022–23 season with head coach Chris Mooney on leave due to heart surgery.

Under a new NCAA rule permitting two additional staff members to be designated as assistant coaches without being able to participate in off-campus recruiting, Mark McGonigal and Jack Fahed were elevated from their previous staff roles in September 2023.

Preseason

In a preseason poll of league head coaches and select media members, Richmond was chosen to finish 11th out of 15 teams in the Atlantic 10 Conference in 2023–24. Neal Quinn was selected to the Preseason All-Conference Third Team.
