The 1992–93 NBA season was the Warriors' 47th season in the National Basketball Association, and 30th in the San Francisco Bay Area.[1] This season is most memorable when the Warriors drafted Latrell Sprewell from the University of Alabama with the 24th pick in the 1992 NBA draft.[2] The Warriors were severely bitten by the injury bug all season losing their top players; Chris Mullin missed half the season with a torn ligament in his right thumb, only playing just 46 games,[3] Tim Hardaway missed 16 games with a bruised right knee,[4] Šarūnas Marčiulionis broke his right leg and dislocated his right ankle in a jogging accident before the season, returned to play 30 games, then sat out the rest of the year with Achilles tendonitis;[5] and second-year star Billy Owens missed 45 games with a knee injury.[6]
The Warriors struggled after an 18–14 start to the season, losing 15 of their next 17 games, including an 8-game losing streak between January and February. After releasing oft-injured center Alton Lister to free agency in March, the team lost six of their final eight games of the season and finished sixth in the Pacific Division with a 34–48 record, failing to qualify for the playoffs.[7]
Mullin led the team in scoring averaging 25.9 points per game, while Hardaway averaged 21.6 points, 10.6 assists and 1.8 steals per game, and was named to the All-NBA Third Team, and Sprewell averaged 15.4 points and 1.6 steals per game, and was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team. In addition, Owens provided the team with 16.5 points and 7.1 rebounds per game, while Marčiulionis contributed 17.4 points and 1.7 steals per game, second-year forward Chris Gatling averaged 9.3 points and 4.6 rebounds per game off the bench, and Tyrone Hill provided with 8.6 points and 10.2 rebounds per game.[8] Mullin and Hardaway were both selected for the 1993 NBA All-Star Game, but Mullin did not participate due to injury.[9] Following the season, Hill was traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers.[10]
