The 2006–07 Washington Huskies men's basketball team represented the University of Washington for the 2006–07 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. Led by fifth-year head coach Lorenzo Romar, the Huskies were members of the Pacific-10 Conference and played their home games on campus at Hec Edmundson Pavilion in Seattle, Washington.

The Huskies were 18–12 overall in the regular season and 8–10 in conference play, seventh in the standings.[2] Washington had only one road win in league play (over last place Arizona State), and ended the regular season with home wins over USC and second-ranked UCLA, the regular season champion.[3][4]

At the conference tournament in Los Angeles, Washington defeated tenth seed Arizona State in the first round,[5][6][7] but lost to rival Washington State by ten points in a quarterfinal;[8] it was the fifth straight loss to the Cougars.[7][9]
