The 2022–23 South Florida Bulls women's basketball team represented the University of South Florida in the 2022–23 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Bulls, coached by Jose Fernandez in his 23rd season, played their home games at Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida. This is USF's tenth season as a member of the American Athletic Conference, known as The American or AAC.

Previous season

The Bulls finished the 2021–22 season 24–9, 12–3 in AAC play to finish in second place. They advanced to the championship game of the American Athletic Conference women's tournament where they lost to UCF. They received at-large bid to the NCAA women's tournament where they lost to Miami in the first round.

Offseason

Departures

Due to COVID-19 disruptions throughout NCAA sports in 2020–21, the NCAA announced that the 2020–21 season would not count against the athletic eligibility of any individual involved in an NCAA winter sport, including women's basketball. This meant that all seniors in 2020–21 had the option to return for 2021–22.
