NBA professional basketball team season
The 1998–99 NBA season was the Wizards' 38th season in the National Basketball Association .[ 1] Prior to the start of the season, which was delayed by a four-month lockout, the Wizards acquired All-Star guard Mitch Richmond and Otis Thorpe from the Sacramento Kings . Richmond had a solid season leading the team in scoring averaging 19.7 points per game. Meanwhile, Rod Strickland finished second in the league with 9.9 assists per game. However, the Wizards continued to under achieve as head coach Bernie Bickerstaff was fired after a 13–19 start, and was replaced with Jim Brovelli midway through the season. The team lost seven of their final nine games finishing sixth in the Atlantic Division with a disappointing 18–32 record. Following the season, Thorpe signed as a free agent with the Miami Heat , Calbert Cheaney signed with the Boston Celtics , Ben Wallace was traded to the Orlando Magic , and Brovelli was fired as coach.
