The 1981–82 Boise State Broncos men's basketball team represented Boise State University during the 1981–82 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Broncos were led by second-year head coach Dave Leach and played their home games on campus at the Bronco Gymnasium in Boise, Idaho.

They finished the regular season at 12–14 overall, with a 6–8 record in the Big Sky Conference, tied for fourth in the standings.[1] The conference tournament included only the top four teams; the Broncos lost the tiebreaker to Weber State for the final berth,[1] and did not qualify for a fourth consecutive year.

This was the last season for varsity basketball at the 1950s Bronco Gym, and its finale against rival Idaho was sold out two weeks in advance.[2] A record crowd of 3,946 saw the Broncos test the ninth-ranked Vandals, but fell by six;[3] the capacity of the gym at the time was listed at 3,682.[2][4] The new BSU Pavilion opened in May, for commencement exercises.
