The head coaches in the Coastal Athletic Association picked Elon to finish 10th in the 14-team conference this year, which is about where the Phoenix landed last season. The team was 8-24 overall and 6-12 in CAA action. 

Among the leaders for the Phoenix during the 2023-2024 season should be sophomore guard Max Mackinnon, who was selected as the CAA Rookie of the Year last season after averaging 11.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game.

In the preseason polls, Mackinnon was named to the All-CAA second team. 

The Phoenix are coached by Billy Taylor, who is entering his second season in charge. 

From his April 2022 start, he has been focused on solidifying a foundation for Elon basketball, and that will include a nine-player recruiting class headed to Elon this season. The group will feature a mix of freshmen and talented transfers.

The last time the Elon men posted a winning record was the abbreviated 2020-2021 season, when the Phoenix were 10-9 overall and 4-7 in conference games. That same season, Elon entered the CAA Men’s Basketball Championship as the No. 8 seed and rolled through to the final, ultimately losing the title to Drexel, 63-56.

Here’s a look at the Elon men’s basketball schedule for the 2023-2024 season.
