The 1992–93 NBA season was the Hawks' 44th season in the National Basketball Association, and 25th season in Atlanta.[1] The Hawks had the tenth overall pick in the 1992 NBA draft, and selected Adam Keefe out of Stanford University.[2][3][4][5][6] During the off-season, the team acquired Mookie Blaylock and Roy Hinson from the New Jersey Nets. However, Hinson never played for the Hawks due to knee injuries he sustained in New Jersey.[7][8][9][10] Despite having Dominique Wilkins back after missing most of the previous year with a ruptured Achilles tendon, the Hawks lost five of their first seven games, but managed to defeat the 2-time defending champion Chicago Bulls on the road, 100–99 at the Chicago Stadium on November 7, 1992.[11][12][13] As the season progressed, the team continued to struggle playing below 500. for the first half of the season, holding a 24–27 record at the All-Star break.[14] However, after holding a 26–31 record as of March 4, the Hawks would win 12 of their next 13 games while posting a 12–3 record in March, on their way to finishing fourth in the Central Division with a 43–39 record.[15]

Wilkins surpassed Bob Pettit as the Hawks all-time scoring leader, finishing second in the league in scoring, averaging 29.9 points and 6.8 rebounds per game; he was also named to the All-NBA Second Team, was selected for the 1993 NBA All-Star Game,[16][17][18][19] and finished in fifth place in Most Valuable Player voting.[20][21][22] In addition, Kevin Willis averaged 17.9 points and 12.9 rebounds per game, while second-year guard Stacey Augmon contributed 14.0 points per game, and Blaylock provided the team with 13.4 points, 8.4 assists and 2.5 steals per game. Off the bench, Duane Ferrell provided with 10.2 points per game, while second-year guard Paul Graham contributed 8.1 points per game, Keefe averaged 6.6 points and 5.3 rebounds per game, and starting center Jon Koncak provided with 3.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game.[23]

However, in the Eastern Conference First Round of the playoffs, the Hawks were swept by the Bulls in three straight games.[24][25][26][27] The Bulls would go on to defeat the Phoenix Suns in six games in the NBA Finals, winning their third consecutive championship.[28][29][30][31][32] This was Wilkins' final full season with the Hawks before being traded to the Los Angeles Clippers midway through the following season.[33][34][35][36][37] Also, following the season, head coach Bob Weiss was fired after three seasons with the Hawks,[38][39][40] and Travis Mays was released to free agency.

For the season, the Hawks changed their uniforms, adding side panels to the right side of their jerseys and shorts, which remained in use until 1995.[41][42]
