1993–94 Cleveland Cavaliers season
The 1993–94 NBA season was the 24th season of the National Basketball Association franchise based in Cleveland, Ohio.[1] The Cavaliers had the 22nd overall pick in the 1993 NBA draft, and selected Chris Mills from the University of Arizona.[2][3][4][5] During the off-season, the team acquired Tyrone Hill from the Golden State Warriors,[6][7][8][9] and signed free agent Rod Higgins in December.[10] Under new head coach Mike Fratello,[11][12][13] the Cavaliers struggled playing below .500 with a 7–14 start, but soon recovered and held a 24–23 record at the All-Star break.[14] The Cavs were bitten by the injury bug again as Brad Daugherty missed 32 games with a back injury,[15][16][17] while Larry Nance missed 49 games with a knee injury,[18][19] and Hill missed 25 games due to thumb and knee injuries.[19][20] However, Mark Price, Hot Rod Williams and Gerald Wilkins would all step up, as the Cavaliers posted an 11-game winning streak between February and March, finishing 4th in the Central Division with a 47–35 record.[21]

Price led the team with 17.3 points, 7.8 assists and 1.4 steals per game, and was named to the All-NBA Third Team, and selected for the 1994 NBA All-Star Game,[22][23][24][25][26] while Williams averaged 13.7 points, 7.6 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game, and Wilkins provided the team with 14.3 points per game. In addition, Daugherty averaged 17.0 points and 10.2 rebounds per game, while Nance provided with 11.2 points, 6.9 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game, and Hill contributed 10.6 points and 8.8 rebounds per game. Mills averaged 9.4 points and 5.1 rebounds per game off the bench, while Bobby Phills stepped into the lineup and contributed 8.3 points per game, and Terrell Brandon provided with 8.3 points and 3.8 assists per game off the bench.[27]
However, during the final month of the regular season, Williams went down with a broken right thumb.[28][29] With the lack of big men on the team during the playoffs, the Cavaliers were swept by the Chicago Bulls in three straight games in the Eastern Conference First Round.[30][31][32][33]
This was also the Cavaliers final season playing at The Coliseum in Richfield, Ohio. Following the season, Nance retired,[34][18] and Higgins was released to free agency. This was also Daugherty's final season of his career, as he missed all of the next two seasons due to back injuries.[35][36]
