The 2015–16 Mount St. Mary's Mountaineers men's basketball team represented Mount St. Mary's University during the 2015–16 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Mountaineers, led by fourth-year head coach Jamion Christian, played their home games at Knott Arena and were members of the Northeast Conference.

Newcomers to the team included incoming freshmen Bryce Thurston and Elijah Long, the latter of whom committed to the Mountaineers after originally planning to play for Florida Gulf Coast. Guard Marcell Haskett signed with the Mountaineers, but later re-opened his recruiting and enrolled in a prep school instead.

Returning players included Byron "BK" Ashe and Gregory Graves, who were both members of the NEC's All-Conference Third Team the previous season. Lamont "Junior" Robinson, now a sophomore, was named to the All-Conference Rookie Team in his freshman year.

They finished the season 14–19, 10–8 in NEC play to finish in fifth place. They defeated St. Francis Brooklyn in the first round of the NEC tournament to advance to the semifinals where they lost to Fairleigh Dickinson.
