The Commodores have won three SEC regular season titles (1965, 1974 and 1993) and two SEC Tournament championships (1951 and 2012). They have competed in thirteen NCAA Tournaments, making it to the Elite Eight once (1965) and the Sweet Sixteen six times (1965, 1974, 1988, 1993, 2004, and 2007). Vanderbilt has played in eleven National Invitation Tournaments, winning it in 1990 and finishing runners-up in 1994.[1] Memorial Gymnasium{{main|Memorial Gymnasium (Vanderbilt University)}}The Commodores play their home games in Memorial Gymnasium. Memorial Gymnasium was built in the early 1950s. It was dedicated as the campus memorial to students and alumni killed in World War II; a plaque commemorating those who died is displayed in the gym's north lobby. At the time of the gym's construction, there was a serious discussion within the Vanderbilt community about whether the school should de-emphasize intercollegiate athletics and refocus on its academic program. As a compromise between those who advocated increased athletics competition and those who argued in favor of de-emphasis, the gymnasium was built to hold only about 9,000 seats, and it would be readily adaptable to other uses—significantly, as a possible concert hall. Consequently, the gymnasium floor was built up above its surroundings, more in the nature of a stage. The areas out of bounds along the sidelines were very wide, in contrast with the small facility which it replaced, where the walls were right along the sidelines and players could scrape their shoulders bringing the ball up the court. This necessitated the placement of the benches at the end of the court, which was not highly unusual at the time. In addition, each goal was anchored by two far-reaching beams attached to support columns, with extra support coming from cables stretching all the way to the gym's ceiling. In the case of a backboard shatter or beam fracture, replacing these goals would be highly difficult, compared to the usual goal setup at most venues. Memorial Gym is well known for its unusual design. The end-of-the-floor bench location is now unique in major college basketball, and SEC coaches who travel to Memorial, along with coaches from other schools who have played at Vanderbilt as a post-season venue, have said that the unusual setup gives Vanderbilt a tremendous home court advantage, since no other facility in which opponents play is arranged in such a way.

Retired numbersOnly two male Commodores have had their jerseys retired by the university: - Clyde Lee #43 – Lee was perhaps the greatest player in Commodore history. He averaged the most points per game in school history and the balconies on the south end of Memorial Gymnasium are commonly referred to as the "balconies that Clyde built".
- Perry Wallace #25 – The first African-American basketball player in the Southeastern Conference, and the first African American to compete in the SEC for his entire period of athletic eligibility.{{efn|Contrary to often-stated belief, Wallace was not the first African American to play an SEC sport. The first African American to play in the SEC was Stephen Martin, who walked on to the Tulane baseball team in the 1966 season, the school year before Wallace enrolled at Vanderbilt. Martin is often ignored as an SEC integration pioneer because Tulane left the SEC immediately after the 1966 baseball season.[5] Wallace was also not the first black scholarship athlete to play in the SEC, although this was only because the football season precedes the basketball season within the school year. At the same time that Wallace enrolled at Vanderbilt, Kentucky enrolled two African Americans on football scholarships, Nate Northington and Greg Page. Page suffered a spinal cord injury before playing in a varsity game and died from the complications on September 29, 1967; Northington played in Kentucky's first two games of the 1967 season, first at Indiana on September 23 and then against Ole Miss at home on September 30 (he did not play again for the Wildcats, transferring to Western Kentucky after that season).[6]}}

Consecutive games with a 3-point field goalVanderbilt is one of only three teams to make a 3-point field goal in every game since the rule was implemented in the 1986–87 season. The other two teams to do so are Princeton and UNLV. The Commodores have made a 3-point shot in 1,031 consecutive games as of March 15, 2018.
