† 2021 A10 Tournament winner

The 2020–21 George Mason Patriots Men's basketball team represented George Mason University during the 2020–21 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The season marked the 55th for the program, the sixth under head coach Dave Paulsen, and the eighth as members of the Atlantic 10 Conference. The Patriots played their home games at EagleBank Arena in Fairfax, Virginia. The Patriots finished the season 13–9, 8–6 in A-10 play to finish in sixth place. They defeated George Washington in the second round of the A-10 tournament[1] before losing to Davidson in the quarterfinals.[2]

On March 16, 2021, the school fired Paulsen.[3] A week later, the school named Tennessee assistant Kim English the team's new head coach.[4]

Previous season

The Patriots finished the 2019–20 season 17–15, 5–13 in A-10 play to finish in twelfth place. The A-10 tournament was canceled after the first round due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[5]
