The 2024–25 Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles men's basketball team represents the University of Southern Indiana during the 2024–25 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Screaming Eagles, led by fifth-year head coach David Ragland, play their home games at the newly renamed Liberty Arena in Evansville, Indiana, as members of the Ohio Valley Conference.

This season will mark Southern Indiana's third year of a four-year transition period from Division II to Division I. As a result, the Screaming Eagles are not eligible for the NCAA tournament until the 2026–27 season.

Previous season

The Screaming Eagles finished the 2023–24 season 8–24, 5–13 in OVC play to finish in a tie for eighth place. They were defeated by Tennessee State in the first round of the OVC tournament.
