The 2020–21 San Diego State Aztecs men's basketball team represents San Diego State University during the 2020–21 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Aztecs, led by fourth-year head coach Brian Dutcher, play their home games at Viejas Arena as members in the Mountain West Conference.

Previous season

The Aztecs finished the season 30–2, 17–1 in Mountain West play to be regular season Mountain West champions. They defeated Air Force and Boise State to reach the championship game of the Mountain West Tournament where they lost to Utah State. Although they were a virtual lock to receive an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament, on March 12 the NCAA Tournament was cancelled amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
