1993–94 Philadelphia 76ers season

The 1993–94 NBA season was the 76ers 45th season in the National Basketball Association, and 31st season in Philadelphia.[1] During the offseason, the Sixers signed free agent Orlando Woolridge and acquired Dana Barros from the Charlotte Hornets, who acquired him from the Seattle SuperSonics two days prior. Shawn Bradley was drafted as the second pick in the 1993 NBA draft, and the Sixers tried to build a team around him. Moses Malone, the starting center for the Sixers from 1982 to 1986 was signed to help develop the 7'6" center from Utah, but it was to no avail. Bradley went down with a knee injury after 49 games, and was out for the remainder of the season.[2] After a 20–26 start, the Sixers suffered a 15-game losing streak as Jeff Hornacek was traded to the Utah Jazz for Jeff Malone at midseason.

The Sixers continued to struggle as they went on an 11-game losing streak, losing 31 of their final 36 games. They finished sixth in the Atlantic Division with a 25–57 record. Second-year star Clarence Weatherspoon led the team in scoring with 18.4 points per game. Following the season, Woolridge retired, Malone signed as a free agent with the San Antonio Spurs, Johnny Dawkins signed with the Detroit Pistons, and head coach Fred Carter was fired and replaced by John Lucas II, who was resigned by San Antonio Spurs following an on and off court distractions with Dennis Rodman.
