NBA professional basketball team season From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1992–93 NBA season was the Clippers' 23rd season in the National Basketball Association, and their 9th season in Los Angeles.[1] In the 1992 NBA draft, the Clippers selected Randy Woods out of La Salle University with the sixteenth overall pick, and selected Elmore Spencer out of UNLV with the 25th overall pick.[2][3][4][5] In the off-season, the team acquired Mark Jackson from the New York Knicks,[6][7][8][9] acquired second-year center Stanley Roberts from the Orlando Magic in a three-team trade,[10][11][8] acquired Hot Plate Williams from the Washington Bullets,[12][13][14] and signed free agent Kiki Vandeweghe.[15][16][17] After losing their first three games, the Clippers played solid basketball winning 12 of their next 16 games, and later held a 26–25 record at the All-Star break.[18] The Clippers finished fourth in the Pacific Division with a 41–41 record, making their second consecutive playoff appearance.[19]
