The 1906–07 Army Cadets men's basketball team was the representative men's basketball squad of the United States Military Academy (USMA) for the intercollegiate 1906–07 basketball season. The team competed as an independent, as the United States Military Academy did not belong to a formal athletic conference at that time.

Program context
The early 1900s marked the formative years of organized college basketball in the United States. Army's basketball program was established in the first decade of the 20th century, and the 1906–07 campaign contributed to the development of the sport at the academy. Detailed statistical records (such as overall win–loss record, head coach, roster, and game locations) for this specific season are not comprehensively documented in readily available encyclopedic sources. Consequently, precise information regarding the team’s performance, coaching staff, and schedule remains limited.
Historical significance
Although specific game results are scarce, the participation of the Army Cadets in the 1906–07 season reflects the broader adoption of basketball by military academies and other higher‑education institutions during this period. The team's activities helped lay the groundwork for the sustained basketball tradition that the United States Military Academy maintains today, including its later membership in the Patriot League.
