The 2022–23 Fairleigh Dickinson Knights men's basketball team represented Fairleigh Dickinson University in the 2022–23 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Knights, led by first-year head coach Tobin Anderson, played their home games at the Rothman Center in Hackensack, New Jersey as members of the Northeast Conference (NEC).

They finished the regular season 17–14, 10–6 in NEC play, to finish in a tie for second place. As the No. 2 seed in the NEC tournament, they defeated St. Francis Brooklyn in the quarterfinals and Saint Francis (PA) in the semifinals. In a unique circumstance, the semifinal between Saint Francis (PA) and Fairleigh Dickinson decided the NEC's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament because Merrimack was in a transition period from Division II to Division I and ineligible for the tournament. The Knights lost in the championship game to Merrimack, but still earned a No. 16 seed in the East region. In the First Four, they defeated Texas Southern to advance to the first round. There they became only the second No. 16 seed ever to upset a No. 1 seed by defeating Purdue, in the biggest upset in NCAA tournament history in terms of point spread. The Knights lost in the second round to eventual Final Four participant Florida Atlantic.

On March 21, 2023, head coach Tobin Anderson left the school to become the head coach at Iona. The same day, the school promoted assistant coach Jack Castleberry to head coach.

The Knights finished the 2021–22 season 4–22, 5–13 in NEC play, to finish tied for last place. As the No. 8 seed, they were defeated by Central Connecticut in the first round of the NEC tournament.

On April 25, 2022, the school announced that they were parting ways with head coach Greg Herenda after nine years at the position. On May 2, Tobin Anderson, head coach at St. Thomas Aquinas, was named as the Knights' next head coach.
