UDM sports teams are nicknamed the Titans and the school competes in the Horizon League, where it is perennially a contender for the Horizon League title in men's basketball. Men's Coach Perry Watson led a successful program at Detroit's Southwestern High School before coming to UDM and maintains strong recruiting ties within the city's public league. Currently in his 14th season as head coach, Perry Watson has guided Detroit to 10 winning seasons, three league titles, two NCAA Tournament appearances and an NIT Final Four. The Titans two NCAA appearances also included victories over St. John's and UCLA. Between 1997-98 and 2000-01, the Titans had four straight 20-victory seasons.

Dick Vitale, ESPN's most well-known college basketball commentator, was the Detroit men's basketball Head Coach for four seasons (1973-1977) before becoming the school's Athletics Director 1977-78. The following year he left to coach the Detroit Pistons. In his final year as a college head coach, "Dickie V." led the Detroit Titans to the Round of 16 in the 1977 NCAA Tournament before losing to Michigan, 86-81.

Since 1996-97, Detroit Titans athletic teams have won 14 league championships and 15 teams have competed in NCAA championships. The men's soccer team was the 2005 Horizon League champions. The University is the host institution for the 2008 NCAA Midwest Regional and 2009 NCAA Final Four men's basketball tournament at Ford Field in Detroit.
