The 2017–18 Arkansas–Pine Bluff Golden Lions men's basketball team represented the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff during the 2017–18 NCAA Division I men's basketball season.

The Golden Lions, led by 10th-year head coach George Ivory, played their home games at the K. L. Johnson Complex as members of the Southwestern Athletic Conference.

Due to Grambling State's Academic Progress Rate violations and subsequent postseason ineligibility, the Golden Lions received the No.

They defeated Mississippi Valley State and Southern before losing to Texas Southern in the tournament championship.

The Golden Lions finished the 2016–17 season 7–25, 6–12 in SWAC play to finish in a tie for eighth place.
