The 2020–21 Iowa State Cyclones men's basketball team represented Iowa State University during the 2020–21 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Cyclones were led by Steve Prohm, who coached his sixth and final season at Iowa State. They played their home games at Hilton Coliseum in Ames, Iowa as members of the Big 12 Conference.

The Cyclones would suffer through a COVID-19-plagued 2–22 record, including an 0–18 mark in Big 12 play, the first team to go winless through the Big 12 since TCU in 2014. They lost in the First round of the Big 12 tournament to Oklahoma. Following the end of the season, ISU athletic director Jamie Pollard announced that the school and Prohm had parted ways.
