The 1992–93 NBA season was the 47th season for the Boston Celtics in the National Basketball Association.[1] This marked the first season since the 1978–79 season that Hall of Fame player Larry Bird was not on the team. This was also the final season for long-time Celtics All-Star forward Kevin McHale, as he would retire the following off-season.[2][3][4][5] During the off-season, the Celtics signed free agent Xavier McDaniel,[6][7][8][9] then later on in December, traded top draft pick Jon Barry to the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for Alaa Abdelnaby,[10][11][12] and also re-signed free agent John Bagley, who played for the team the previous season, but was not re-signed during the off-season.[13][14][15]

However, the team got off to a bad start losing eight of their first ten games, as Ed Pinckney only played just seven games due to a knee injury.[16][17][18] Despite the bad start, the Celtics would post a 7-game winning streak in January, hold a 26–24 record at the All-Star break,[19] and would then post a nine-game winning streak in March to finish second in the Atlantic Division with a solid 48–34 record (only 3 games behind the previous year, when Bird was on the team).[20] The Celtics also qualified for the playoffs for the fourteenth consecutive season.[21]

Reggie Lewis led the team in scoring, averaging 20.8 points and 1.5 steals per game, while McDaniel averaged 13.5 points and 6.0 rebounds per game, and Kevin Gamble provided the team with 13.3 points per game. In addition, Robert Parish averaged 12.6 points, 9.4 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game, while Dee Brown contributed 10.9 points, 5.8 assists and 1.7 steals per game, McHale provided with 10.7 points and 5.0 rebounds per game off the bench, and Sherman Douglas contributed 7.8 points and 6.4 assists per game.[22] However, McHale would briefly feud with head coach Chris Ford near the end of the season over his lack of playing time, which did not help with causing distractions and lack of focus for the Celtics.[23][24] Ford finished in seventh place in Coach of the Year voting.[25][26][27]

The Celtics held home-court advantage in the Eastern Conference First Round of the playoffs against the 5th-seeded Charlotte Hornets. However, during Game 1 of the series, Lewis collapsed on the court; Lewis scored 17 points in 13 minutes as the Celtics defeated the Hornets, 112–101.[28][29][30][31][32] However, without Lewis, the Celtics lost the next three games to the Hornets, thus losing the series in four games.[33][34][35][36] Game 1 of that series would also be the final game for Lewis, as he would die of cardiac arrest during practice three months later, before the next season began.[37][38][39][40][41]

Following the season, Joe Kleine signed as a free agent with the Phoenix Suns,[42][43] and Bagley signed with the Atlanta Hawks during the next season.[44][45]
