The 2000–01 Seattle SuperSonics season was the Seattle SuperSonics' 33rd season in the National Basketball Association.[1] With the hopes of improving the team in the middle, the Sonics acquired All-Star center Patrick Ewing from the New York Knicks during the offseason. However, the Sonics would get off to a slow start losing seven of their first ten games. Head coach Paul Westphal was fired and replaced by former Sonics guard Nate McMillan. The Sonics finished fifth in the Pacific Division with a 44–38 record, missing the playoffs. Rookie Desmond Mason won the Slam Dunk Contest during the All-Star Weekend in Washington, D.C. It was Ewing's only season in a Sonics uniform as he left for the Orlando Magic the next season. Also following the season, Ruben Patterson signed as a free agent with the Portland Trail Blazers.
