The 2022–23 Stanford Cardinal women's basketball team represented Stanford University during the 2022–23 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Cardinal were led by thirty-seventh year head coach Tara VanDerveer, and they played their home games at Maples Pavilion as members of the Pac-12 Conference.

The team's win over Sacred Heart marked the end of losing streak to Mid Major New England teams, the streak began back in 1998 when they lost to Harvard to become the only number 1 seed to be upset and in 1999 when they lost to Maine in the first round.

Offseason

Due to COVID-19, the NCAA ruled in October 2020 that the 2020–21 season would not count against the eligibility of any basketball player, thus giving all players the option to return in 2021–22. Additionally, any players who have declared for the 2022 WNBA draft—including seniors, who must opt into this year's draft—have the option to return if they make a timely withdrawal from the draft and end any pre-draft relationships with agents. Thus, separate lists will initially be maintained for confirmed and potential departures.
