The 1963–64 William & Mary Indians men's basketball team represented the College of William & Mary in intercollegiate basketball during the 1963–64 NCAA University Division men's basketball season. Under the seventh year of head coach Bill Chambers, the team finished the season 9–13 and 5–9 in the Southern Conference.

William & Mary played most of its home games on campus at Blow Gymnasium, with one home game played off campus at the Norfolk Municipal Auditorium in Norfolk, Virginia. This was the 59th season of the collegiate basketball program at William & Mary, whose nickname is now the Tribe.^[1]

The Indians finished in seventh place in the conference and qualified for the 1964 Southern Conference men's basketball tournament, held at the Charlotte Coliseum in Charlotte, North Carolina. William & Mary, however, fell to second-seeded West Virginia in the first round.

The Indians did not participate in a post-season tournament.
