2016 West Coast Conference men's basketball tournament

The 2016 West Coast Conference men's basketball tournament was the postseason men's basketball tournament for the West Coast Conference and was held March 3–8, 2016 at the Orleans Arena in Paradise, Nevada. The winner of the tournament, Gonzaga, received the conference's automatic bid into the 2016 NCAA tournament.

Seeds

Only 9 of the 10 WCC teams participated in the Tournament due to Pacific's self-imposed postseason ban. As a result, the top 7 teams received a bye into the Quarterfinals. Teams were seeded by record within the conference, with a tiebreaker system to seed teams that had identical conference records.
