The 2013–14 UCLA Bruins men's basketball team represented the University of California, Los Angeles during the 2013–14 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Bruins were led by first year head coach Steve Alford and played home games at Pauley Pavilion as members in the Pac-12 Conference. They finished the season 28–9, and advanced to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.

UCLA finished 12–6 in Pac-12 play, finishing in second place in the conference. At the Pac-12 Tournament, the Bruins defeated the Arizona Wildcats 75–71 for the tournament championship.
