The 2010–11 Big 12 Conference men's basketball season marked the 15th season of Big 12 Conference basketball.
This was the final season for the Big 12 as a 12-team conference, as two schools departed at the end of the 2010–11 academic year. Colorado joined the Pacific-10 Conference, which became the Pac-12, while Nebraska joined the Big Ten Conference.
