Winthrop Eagles men's basketball statistical leaders

The Winthrop Eagles men's basketball statistical leaders are individual statistical leaders of the Winthrop Eagles men's basketball program in various categories,^[1] including points, assists, blocks, rebounds, and steals. Within those areas, the lists identify single-game, single-season, and career leaders. The Eagles represent Winthrop University in the NCAA's Big South Conference.

Winthrop began competing in intercollegiate basketball in 1978.^[1] The NCAA did not officially record assists as a stat until the 1983–84 season, and blocks and steals until the 1985–86 season, but William & Mary's record books includes players in these stats before these seasons. These lists are updated through the end of the 2020–21 season.
