The 2016–17 St. Bonaventure Bonnies men's basketball team represents St. Bonaventure University during the 2016–17 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Bonnies, led by tenth year head coach Mark Schmidt, play their home games at the Reilly Center and are members of the Atlantic 10 Conference.

Previous season

The Bonnies finished the 2015–16 season 22–9, 14–4 in A-10 play to finish in a three-way tie for the regular season championship. They lost in the quarterfinals of the A-10 Tournament to Davidson. While the two other teams who tied with Saint Bonaventure for the A-10 title received at-large bids to the NCAA Tournament, the Bonnies were one of the "First Four Out" and instead received a top seed in the National Invitation Tournament where they lost in the first round to Wagner.
