The 1999–2000 NBA season was the 76ers' 51st season in the National Basketball Association, and 37th season in Philadelphia.[1] During the offseason, the Sixers signed free agent Bruce Bowen while acquiring Billy Owens from the Orlando Magic. At midseason, the Sixers traded Owens along with second-year guard Larry Hughes to the Golden State Warriors, and traded Bowen to the Chicago Bulls for Toni Kukoč in a three-team trade. However, Bowen was released and signed with the Miami Heat. The Sixers won seven of their final nine games, and finished third in the Atlantic Division with a 49–33 record. Allen Iverson averaged 28.4 points per game, and made his first All-Star appearance as he was selected for the 2000 NBA All-Star Game in Oakland. He was also named to the All-NBA Second Team. In the first round of the playoffs, the Sixers defeated the 4th-seeded Charlotte Hornets in four games, but would lose in six games to the Indiana Pacers in the semifinals.

For the season, the Sixers added blue alternate road uniforms that lasted until 2006.
