2019–20 Georgia State Panthers women's basketball team

The 2019–20 Georgia State Panthers women's basketball team represented Georgia State University in the 2019–20 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Panthers, led by second year head coach Gene Hill, were a member of the Sun Belt Conference and played their home games on campus at the GSU Sports Arena. They finished season 8–21, 5–13 in Sun Belt play to finish in eleventh place. They were not invited to the Sun Belt tournament following the conclusion of the regular season, and, soon after, the NCAA canceled all post-season play due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
