2014–15 West Coast Conference men's basketball season

The 2014–15 West Coast Conference men's basketball season will begin with practices in October 2014 and end with the 2015 West Coast Conference men's basketball tournament at the Orleans Arena March 6–10, 2015 in Paradise, Nevada. The regular season will begin in November, with the conference schedule starting at the end of December.

This will be the 30th season for WCC men's basketball, which began in the 1985–86 season when the league was known as the West Coast Athletic Conference (WCAC). It will also be the 26th season under the West Coast Conference name (the conference began as the California Basketball Association in 1952, became the WCAC in 1956, and dropped the word "Athletic" in 1989).
