2022 MVC tournament winner

The 2021–22 Loyola Ramblers men's basketball team represented Loyola University Chicago during the 2021–22 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Ramblers, led by first-year head coach Drew Valentine, played their home games at the Joseph J. Gentile Arena in Chicago, Illinois as members of the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC). They finished the regular season 25–7 overall and 13–5 in MVC play, tying for second place in the conference standings.

As the No. 4 seed in the MVC tournament, they defeated Bradley, Northern Iowa, and Drake to win the MVC Tournament for the second consecutive season. With this victory, they secured the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament as the No. 10 seed, where they lost in the first round to Ohio State.

On November 16, 2021, Loyola announced that the 2021–22 season would be its final season in the MVC, as the program would join the Atlantic 10 Conference in July 2022.
