The Rice Owls men's basketball program is the intercollegiate men's basketball program of Rice University.

The program is classified in the NCAA's Division I, and the team competes in the American Athletic Conference.

Previously known as Rice Gymnasium, it was renamed in honor of Rice alum Bobby Tudor, who spearheaded the 2008 renovation of the facility with a multimillion-dollar donation.

Her daughter, Mrs. Edward W. Kelley, made a generous donation to the gymnasium building fund in honor of her late mother, an ardent supporter of Rice.

The Owls have appeared in three College Basketball Invitational (CBI) tournaments.
