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.
