The 1973–74 Idaho Vandals men's basketball team represented the University of Idaho during the 1973–74 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. Members of the Big Sky Conference, the Vandals were led by eighth-year head coach Wayne Anderson and played their home games on campus at the Memorial Gymnasium in Moscow, Idaho.[1] They were 12–14 overall and 5–9 in conference play.[2][3]

No Vandals were named to the all-conference team; senior forward Steve Ton, senior guard Tyrone Fitzpatrick, and sophomore guard Steve Weist were honorable mention.[4][5]

Anderson resigned shortly after the season, ending seventeen years in coaching at his alma mater.[6][7] He returned to Moscow in 1982 and resumed duties as assistant athletic director, and retired in 1994.
