Cedrick Banks (born December 16, 1981) is an American professional basketball player. A 6'3" guard, he last played for Cholet Basket of the LNB Pro A.

Banks starred at Westinghouse High School in Chicago. He was named Chicago Sun Times Player of the Year as a senior in 2000, ahead of other area standouts such as Dwyane Wade of Richards High School and Eddy Curry of Thornwood High School. Banks led Westinghouse to the 2000 state championship game, where he scored 22 points, but his team lost to West Aurora High School.

After graduating high school, Banks went on to play for the University of Illinois at Chicago. He redshirted his first season because of academic problems, then led his team in scoring (13.6 points) in 2001–02. Over the next three seasons, Banks earned three All-Horizon League First Team nods and was a five-time Horizon League Player of the Week. As a senior, he broke UIC's career scoring record, ending his collegiate career with 2,097 points. His point guard at Westinghouse and UIC was Martell Bailey.

Banks began his professional career in May 2005 with the Nebraska Cranes of the United States Basketball League. After averaging 17.1 points per game and winning All-Rookie Team honors, he signed with Besançon BCD of the French Pro-B Division, and was named MVP of that league in 2006. He then played summer league basketball with the Chicago Bulls, but did not make the regular season team.
