The 2016–17 NC State Wolfpack men's basketball team represented North Carolina State University during the 2016–17 NCAA Division I men's basketball season.

The Wolfpack, led by sixth-year head coach Mark Gottfried, played its home games at PNC Arena in Raleigh, North Carolina and were members of the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC).

They lost in the first round of the ACC tournament to Clemson.

On February 16, 2017, head coach Mark Gottfried was fired, but the school allowed him to finish out the season.

As a result of the NCAA’s investigation into alleged violations in the men’s basketball program, the panel accepted the university's self-imposed punishment that included a fine and reduction in scholarships for the 2021-22 academic year.
