The 2016–17 Harvard Crimson women's basketball team will represent Harvard University during the 2016–17 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Crimson, led by thirty-fifth year head coach Kathy Delaney-Smith, will play their home games at the Lavietes Pavilion and are members of the Ivy League.

Ivy League changes

This season, the Ivy League will institute conference postseason tournaments. The tournaments will only award the Ivy League automatic bids for the NCAA Division I Men's and Women's Basketball Tournaments; the official conference championships will continue to be awarded based solely on regular-season results. The Ivy League playoff will take place March 11 and 12 at the Palestra in Philadelphia. There will be two semifinal games on the first day with the No. 1 seed playing the No. 4 seed and the No. 2 seed playing the No. 3 seed. The final will be played the next day for the NCAA bid.[1]
