The 1993-94 Utah Jazz season was the team's 20th in the NBA.[1] John Stockton led the league in assists for the seventh straight season as Karl Malone joined the list in all-time points scored topping the 19,000 point mark. At midseason, the Jazz traded Jeff Malone to the Philadelphia 76ers for Jeff Hornacek. With the addition of Hornacek, the Jazz went on to win ten consecutive games finishing third in the Midwest Division with a 53-29 record. In the first round of the playoffs, the Jazz defeated the fourth seeded San Antonio Spurs after losing Game 1. In the semifinals, they took a 3-0 lead over the #8 seed Denver Nuggets. However, the Jazz would lose the next three games to the Nuggets, then finally win Game 7 and advance to the next round. In the Western Conference Finals, they lost five games to the Houston Rockets.
