The 1993 Big Sky Conference Men's Basketball Tournament was held March 10–12 at the Kibbie Dome at the University of Idaho in Moscow, Idaho.

Boise State defeated top-seeded, hosts Idaho in the championship game, 80–68, to clinch their third Big Sky men's basketball tournament title.

The Broncos, in turn, received an automatic bid to the 1993 NCAA Tournament. No other Big Sky members were invited.

Format

Nevada departed the Big Sky prior to the 1992–93 season (leaving for the Big West), reducing total membership back to eight.

Nonetheless, no changes were made to the tournament format. Only the top six teams (out of nine) from the regular season conference standings were invited to the tournament. The two top teams were given byes into the semifinals while the third- through sixth-seeded teams were placed and paired into the preliminary quarterfinal round.
