1950–51 Washington Huskies men's basketball team

The 1950–51 Washington Huskies men's basketball team represented the University of Washington for the 1950–51 NCAA college basketball season. Led by first-year head coach Tippy Dye, the Huskies were members of the Pacific Coast Conference and played their home games on campus at Hec Edmundson Pavilion in Seattle, Washington.

The Huskies were 20–5 overall in the regular season and 11–5 in conference play; they won the PCC title series with a two-game sweep of Southern division winner UCLA, which extended their home court winning streak to nineteen games.

In the 16-team NCAA tournament, Washington defeated Texas A&M by 22 points in the opener of the West regional in Kansas City, then fell by four to second-ranked Oklahoma A&M. In the regional third place game, the Huskies defeated newly-crowned NIT champion BYU by thirteen points to end the season at 24–6.

Dye was hired in June 1950; he was previously the head coach at Ohio State for four seasons. The Buckeyes were Big Ten champions in the 1949–50 season and made the eight-team NCAA tournament.

Washington returned to the NCAA Tournament two years later in 1953, and advanced to the Final Four.
