The 2017 Big Ten men's basketball tournament was the postseason men's basketball tournament for the Big Ten Conference held from March 8 through March 12, 2017 at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C.
It was the first Big Ten men's basketball tournament held outside the conference's traditional heartland in the Midwest.
As a result, Michigan received the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.
The championship was Michigan's first (after having their win of the inaugural tournament vacated) and they became the lowest-seeded team ever to win the Big Ten tournament.
Teams were seeded by conference record, with a tiebreaker system used to seed teams with identical conference records.
