2025-26 Men's Basketball Roster

Go To Coaching Staff

NOTE: Due to the spread of the novel coronavirus COVID-19, student-athletes retained their year of eligibility from the NCAA regardless of participation in the 2020-21 season. Players on this roster are listed by their NCAA eligibility designation, and their experience (1L, 2L, 3L, etc.) reflects the number of years they have participated and earned a letter at Sam Houston. True freshmen and transfers are listed as HS and TR experience, respectively.
