The2022–23 UCLA Bruins men's basketball team represented theUniversity of California, Los Angeles during the2022–23 NCAA Division I season. TheBruins were led by fourth-year head coachMick Cronin, and they played their home games atPauley Pavilion as members of thePac-12 Conference. Guard/forwardJaime Jaquez Jr. was named a second-teamAll-American.^[1] He was voted thePac-12 Player of the Year, and received first-teamAll-Pac-12 honors along with guardTyger Campbell. GuardJaylen Clark was named to the second team and was voted thePac-12 Defensive Player of the Year. He was placed on the conference's all-defensive team along with forwardAdem Bona, who was named thePac-12 Freshman of the Year.Amari Bailey joined Bona on the Pac-12 All-Freshman Team, and Cronin was voted thePac-12 Coach of the Year.^[2]

UCLA lost five players who were major contributors fromtheir previous year's squad that went 27–8.^[3] However, the Bruins were also the only team in thepower conferences whose roster consisted entirely of players who began their college careers at that school.^[4] With a 60–56 win overColorado on February 26, 2023, the Bruins clinched their first Pac-12 regular season championship since2012–13.^[5] UCLA ended the regular season with an 82–73 win over No. 8Arizona, extending their home winning streak to 25 games, the longest active streak in the nation.^[6] They won the conference by four games and finished the season undefeated at home for the first time since2006–07.^[6]^[7] Clark left the game with a lower leg injury, and was ruled out for thePac-12 tournament.^[8] The top-seeded Bruins advanced to the tournament finals before losing 61–59 to No. 2-seed Arizona,^[9] ending their 12-game winning streak.^[10] UCLA played without its top two defenders,^[10] as Bona also missed the game with an injured left shoulder,^[9] which he suffered in the semifinals againstOregon.^[9]^[11]

The Bruins, who were vying for a No. 1 seed in theNCAA tournament,^[9] received a No. 2 seed in the West Region. It was their highest seeding since they were placed No. 1 in2008. However, Clark was ruled out for the season.^[7] Bona was cleared to return in their opener, but he did not play in the 86–53 rout over No. 15-seedUNC Asheville.^[12] He played in the second round againstNorthwestern, which UCLA won to advance to the Sweet Sixteen for the third straight season.^[13] The Bruins were eliminated 79–76 by third-seededGonzaga. UCLA led by 13 points at halftime, but were down by 10 in the second half with 2:40 remaining. They outscored the Bulldogs 14–3, culminating with athree-point field goal by Bailey to take a one-point lead. However, Gonzaga'sJulian Strawther made a 35-foot (11 m) basket with six seconds remaining, and they held on for the win. Bona sat out the game due to his shoulder.^[14] The game was rematch of the schools' Final Four matchup from2021, also won by the Bulldogs, on a 40-foot (12 m)buzzer beater byJalen Suggs to end the game.^[15]^[16] It was the Bruins' third consecutive loss to the Bulldogs in as many seasons.^[17]
