{{Lua|Module:Infobox|Module:InfoboxImage|Module:College color|Module:Check for unknown parameters}}

This template is designed to be put on college basketball team pages (not season articles), similar to [[Duke Blue Devils men's basketball]]. It should be placed as the very first item in the main body of an article. For pages on women's teams, please use {{para|women|yes}}.

==Parameters==
===Required parameters===
; logo
: The team's logo (''e.g.'', image.jpg). If there is no separate logo for the basketball program, and the primary athletics logo is copyright protected, a wordmark for the school's athletics program may be available to use here, if it is in the public domain.
; university ''or'' college ''or'' institution
: The parameter chosen dictates the label in the infobox. Please use <code>institution</code> for a sponsoring institution that is designated as something other than a university or a college, ''e.g.'', United States Naval Academy. You may wikilink the data you enter here.
; conference
: The team's current conference, preferably wikilinked.
; location
; coach
: The team's current head coach, preferably wikilinked.
; tenure
: Enter in ordinal format. A template can be used to make this entry evergreen (until there's a coaching change) and eliminate the task up updating it each year. For example, <code><nowiki>{{ordinal|{{age|2019|10|15}}}}</nowiki></code> produces {{ordinal|{{age|2019|10|15}}}} and will be updated each year on October 15. The word ''season'' will appear after the entry you make for this parameter.
; arena
: The name of the team's primary home arena, preferably wikilinked.
: If the team has more than one primary home arena, enter ''arena1''<code><nowiki> </nowiki></code>(capacity: xx,xxx)<code><nowiki> </nowiki></code>''arena2''<code><nowiki> </nowiki></code>(capacity: yy,yyy). Do not use the <code>capacity</code> parameter, if there is more than one home arena.
; capacity
: Seating capacity of home arena.
; nickname
: This can be wikilinked to the main article about the school's athletic program or to an article discussing the origin of the team's nickname.
; NCAAchampion
: List years of NCAA championships.
; NCAAfinalfour
: List years in which team participated in NCAA Final Four.
; conference_tournament
: List years in which team won its conference tournament.
; conference_season
: List years in which team won its conference regular-season championship.
; division_season
: List years in which team won a division championship within its conference.

===Optional parameters===
; name
: By default, the infobox should use the name of the page on which it is placed. '''However''', the background colors may not show up properly in the headers, if this is left blank.
; women
: Set to <code>yes</code> for articles about women's teams. Some infobox elements specific to women's teams will not work without activating this parameter.
; current
: Enter the title of the current season's article. It will be automatically wikilinked.
; logo_size
: The size in pixels at which the logo should be displayed (defaults to ''100x150'').
; athletic_director
: Name of the school's current athletic director, wikilinked if possible.
; studentsection
: Name of student section. If it has an article on Wikipedia, tag it.
; record
: The team's all-time record.
; firstseason ''or'' founded
: The parameter used dictates the label that will display in the infobox. It is preferable to use <code>firstseason</code> and enter the season the team first started playing.
; history
: If the team was formerly know by one or more other names, those names can be entered here along with the years they were used in parentheses. If there are multiple former names, separate each entry with <code><nowiki> </nowiki></code>.
; NCAAchampion3
: For men's teams, list years of Premo-Poretta championships before the inception of the NCAA tournament in 1939.
: For women's teams, list years of mythical national championships before the inception of the AIAW tournament in 1972, along with the name of the body designating the team as champions.
; NCAAchampion2
: List years of Helms Athletic Foundation championships before the inception of the NCAA tournament in 1939.
; bestfinish
: This optional parameter will help reduce clutter in the infobox, particularly for teams that have been very successful in the NCAA tournament. The parameter does not apply to teams that have never reached the Elite Eight of an NCAA tournament. It can be used for either men's or women's teams. Activating this parameter will create a section of the infobox that will be collapsed when the page loads. Only the five entries listed below will work; any other entry will be ignored. This parameter should generally be used taking into account only the highest NCAA division affiliation in which the team has had success. For example, a team that has won the Division III tournament and appeared in the Final Four of the College Division (former name of Division II) tournament before 1974, should enter '''4''', not '''1''' for the <code>bestfinish</code> parameter. Similarly, for a team that has won the Division II tournament but has never been to the Elite Eight of the Division I tournament, an entry of '''8''' for this parameter will cause the best Division I result to appear in the collapsed section of the infobox. Permissible entries for <code>bestfinish</code> are
: '''1''' = Won NCAA tournament
: '''2''' = NCAA tournament runner-up
: '''3''' = Won NCAA tournament third-place game
: '''4''' = Reached NCAA tournament Final Four
: '''8''' = Reached NCAA tournament Elite Eight
: There '''must''' be data entered for the data parameter that matches the entry made for the <code>bestfinish</code> parameter. For example, if you enter '''3''' for <code>bestfinish</code>, but <code>NCAAthirdplace</code> is empty, the template will break, and the infobox will not display correctly.
: If a team had a better finish in the Division II or III tournaments than it has in the Division I tournament, and an entry is made for this parameter, data for the Division II or III results will display in the collapsed infobox created by this parameter.
; NCAArunnerup
: List years of NCAA tournament runner-up finishes.
; NCAAthirdplace
: List years the team won the NCAA tournament third-place game.
; NCAAeliteeight
: List years of NCAA Elite Eight appearances.
; NCAAsweetsixteen
: List years of NCAA Sweet Sixteen appearances.
; NCAAroundof32
: List years of NCAA round of 32 appearances only if the team has never reached the Sweet Sixteen. Entries in this parameter will not display in the infobox, unless the <code>NCAAsweetsixteen</code> parameter is empty.
; NCAAtourneyrec
: This parameter will display in the infobox '''only if''' <code>NCAAsweetsixteen</code> and <code>NCAAroundof32</code> are both empty. It should be used for teams that have at least one NCAA Division I tournament win but have never reached the round of 32. Using this parameter for a team that has not won an NCAA Division I tournament game is redundant, since the number of losses the team has is usually apparent from the number of appearances it has made, which is rendered in the infobox by the <code>NCAAtourneys</code> parameter. Please do not enter wins and losses in NCAA Division II or III tournament games in this parameter. The header that will accompany the data entered here is ''NCAA Division I tournament record'', and there is no option to change it.
: '''''Note:''''' If a team has entries in either the <code>NCAAsweetsixteen</code> or <code>NCAAroundof32</code> parameters for Division II or III Sweet Sixteen or round of 32 appearances and has won at least one game in the Division I tournament, consider what information is more relevant to readers. For a team that is currently a Division I institution that has lower-division NCAA Sweet Sixteen or round of 32 appearances in its past, displaying the Division I tournament record that includes at least one win may be more relevant. Also, if the team had lower division Elite Eight or better appearances, entering those will not prevent the <code>NCAAtourneyrec</code> parameter from displaying in the infobox.
; NCAAtourneys
: List years of NCAA tournament appearances.
; AIAWchampion
: List years of AIAW tournament championships. If this parameter is used, please also use <code>AIAWtourneys</code> (at a minimum) to prevent an error in display of the infobox.
; AIAWrunnerup
: List years of AIAW tournament runner-up finishes. If this parameter is used, please also use <code>AIAWtourneys</code> (at a minimum) to prevent an error in display of the infobox.
; AIAWfinalfour
: List years in which team participated in AIAW Final Four. If this parameter is used, please also use <code>AIAWtourneys</code> (at a minimum) to prevent an error in display of the infobox.
; AIAWeliteeight
: List years in which team participated in AIAW Elite Eight. If this parameter is used, please also use <code>AIAWtourneys</code> (at a minimum) to prevent an error in display of the infobox.
; AIAWsweetsixteen
: List years in which team participated in AIAW Sweet Sixteen.
; AIAWtourneys
: List years of AIAW tournament appearances.
; NAIAchampion
: List years of NAIA championships.
; NAIArunnerup
: List years of NAIA tournament runner-up finishes.
; NAIAsemifinals
: List years in which team participated in NAIA semifinals.
; NAIAquarterfinals
: List years in which team participated in NAIA quarterfinals.
; NAIAroundof16 ''or'' NAIAsecondround
: The parameter used dictates the label that will display in the infobox. List years in which team participated in the NAIA tournament round of 16 or second round. The data entered for either of these parameters does not display in the infobox, if there is an entry present in any of <code>NAIAchampion</code>, <code>NAIArunnerup</code>, <code>NAIAsemifinals</code> or <code>NAIAquarterfinals</code>.
; NAIAtourneys
: List years of NAIA tournament appearances.
; USports_champions
: List years of USports championships.
; USports_appearances
: List years of USports tournament appearances.
; division
: Use this parameter only if the team's current conference is separated into divisions. Enter the name of the division to which the team belongs.
; collapseconftour
: Set to <code>yes</code> to activate this parameter. The conference tournament championships section of the infobox will load in a collapsed state. This is useful for teams that have won a large number of conference tournaments or have data showing in which conferences tournaments have been won to reduce the size of the infobox on initial loading of the page.
; collapseconfregsea
: Set to <code>yes</code> to activate this parameter. The conference regular-season championships section of the infobox will load in a collapsed state. This is useful for teams that have won a large number of conference regular-season titles or have data showing in which conferences regular-season titles have been won to reduce the size of the infobox on initial loading of the page.
; notegroup
: If there are data elements of the infobox to which notes, the details of which can be explained using <code><nowiki>{{notelist}}</nowiki></code>, have been appended, the group name used for these notes can be entered in this parameter. This will create an infobox header called ''Notes'', and the footnotes will be displayed below the header.
; onenote
: Set to <code>yes</code> to activate this parameter, if there is only one footnote to be displayed in the ''Notes'' section of the infobox. The title of the header will display as ''Note'' instead of ''Notes''.
; collapsenotes
: Set to <code>yes</code> to activate this parameter. This will cause the ''Notes'' section of the infobox to appear in a collapsed state on page load. This can reduce infobox clutter, particularly if there is more than one footnote.
; color1, color2, color3, color4, hex1, hex2, hex3 ''and'' hex4
: The infobox template will generally find the team's colors and include a reference based on the name. It is usually unnecessary to use these parameters, which will override what the template finds. '''''Caution:''''' Making entries for these parameters can cause the template to fail to display the correct colors, even if the colors entered for these parameters are correct. So, these parameters should be used only if absolutely necessary.
: If you are not seeing the colors you are expecting, check the list at [[Module:College color#Test table|Module:College color]] to make sure the <code>name</code> you are using matches the name on the list. If the name matches, and the colors are incorrect, you can make a request to change them at [[Module talk:College color]].
: The template will sort the school's colors to optimize the color contrast ratio of headers in the infobox. Without this step, readers who are colorblind or have other visual impairments would have difficulty reading the words in the headers. Therefore, if the school's colors are, for example, green and yellow, the template is likely to color the headers green and white (''not'' yellow) to improve readability. See [[MOS:COLORS]] for more information.
; below
: Explanations of the meanings of any notations such as <nowiki>*</nowiki> or {{dagger}} can be entered here. An example is a result shown in the infobox with an <nowiki>*</nowiki> that has been vacated by the NCAA. No header gets created for the data entered here. If you want to separate the entries made here from the information that appears immediately above it, prefix your entries with <code><nowiki><hr></nowiki></code> to create a horizontal line.

===Uniform parameters===
The template uses {{Tl|Basketball kit}} and the parameters follow the same format used in {{Tl|Football kit}}, {{Tl|Infobox baseball team}}, etc. To show stylized versions of home, away, and (optionally) alternate uniforms, use the following:

; h_pattern_b
: Home jersey pattern (e.g., ''_thinsidesonwhite''; see [[:Template:Football kit/pattern list|the pattern list]])
; h_body
: Home jersey colors/accent. A hex value representing home color (e.g. ''990000'')
; h_shorts
: Home shorts colors/accent.
; h_pattern_s
: Home shorts pattern (e.g., ''_blanksides''; see [[:Template:Basketball kit/doc#Shorts|the pattern list]])

; a_pattern_b, a_body, a_shorts, a_pattern_s
: See above, but for away uniform

; 3_pattern_b, 3_body, 3_shorts, 3_pattern_s
: See above, but for alternate uniform
