NBA professional basketball team season
The
2001β02 NBA season was the Warriors' 56th season in the
National Basketball Association , and 40th in the
San Francisco Bay Area .
[1] In the
2001 NBA draft , the Warriors selected
Jason Richardson from
Michigan State University with the fifth overall pick,
[2]
[3]
[4]
[5]
[6] while drafting
Troy Murphy from the
University of Notre Dame with the fourteenth overall pick,
[7] and
Gilbert Arenas from the
University of Arizona with the 31st overall pick in the second round.
[6] The acquisitions of Richardson, Murphy and Arenas sought to help with the Warriors' struggles the past seasons with a 5β3 start to the season. Instead, their struggles continued as they lost 12 of their next 15 games. Head coach
Dave Cowens was fired after an 8β15 start, and was replaced with
Brian Winters . At midseason, second-year center
Marc Jackson was traded to the
Minnesota Timberwolves in exchange for
Dean Garrett .
[8]
[9] The Warriors suffered a ten-game losing streak in March and finished last place in the Pacific Division with a 21β61 record,
[10] which was tied with the
Chicago Bulls for the worst league record.
Despite their continuing struggles,
Antawn Jamison led the team in scoring with 19.7 points per game, while Richardson averaged 14.4 points per game, and was named to the NBA All-Rookie First Team.
[11] Richardson also won the Slam Dunk Contest, and was invited to play in the
Rookie Game during the
All-Star Weekend in
Philadelphia , where he won the MVP award,
[12]
[13] and also finished in third place in
Rookie of the Year voting.
[14]
[15]
Following the season,
Larry Hughes signed as a free agent with the
Washington Wizards ,
[16]
[17] while Winters was fired as head coach, Garrett was released to free agency and
Mookie Blaylock retired.
