Mike Tisdale (born September 15, 1989) is a former American professional basketball player. He played college basketball at the University of Illinois.

Tisdale grew up in Riverton, Illinois, and attended the University of Illinois from 2007 to 2011.

Tisdale went undrafted in the June 2011 NBA draft. Tisdale signed with DJK Würzburg of Germany in August 2011, but his contract was voided before Tisdale appeared in any games for the team as DJK Würzburg claimed Tisdale had a back injury. In December 2011, Tisdale was signed by the Philadelphia 76ers for their training camp roster, but did not appear in any games for the team during the NBA pre-season and was waived before the start of the regular season. In 2011, Tisdale played for the Red Claws but was released after 8 games. In 2012, he signed with the Mad Ants but left after 12 games.
