The 2012–13 Iowa Hawkeyes men's basketball team represented the University of Iowa in the 2012–13 college basketball season. The team was led by 3rd year head coach Fran McCaffery and played their home games at Carver-Hawkeye Arena, which has been their home since 1983. They were members of the Big Ten Conference.

The 25 wins is the most wins in one season for the Hawkeyes since the 2005–2006 season, in which Iowa also had 25 wins. The team went to the 2013 Big Ten Conference Men's Basketball Tournament as a 6th seed where they defeated Northwestern in the 1st round but lost to Michigan State in the Quarterfinals.
