NBA professional basketball team season
The 1993–94 NBA season was the 48th season for the Boston Celtics in the National Basketball Association .[1] This season marked the first since 1978–79 that the Celtics failed to qualify for the NBA Playoffs (a streak of 14 seasons), finishing fifth in the Atlantic Division with a 32–50 record. Tragedy struck the team prior to the season when star forward and team captain Reggie Lewis died of cardiac arrest during practice.[2] The absence of Lewis, and the retirements over the previous two seasons of Larry Bird and Kevin McHale contributed to the poor season. The Celtics started strong going 6–2 and then played mostly mediocre basketball the rest of the season, hovering at around .500 until right before Christmas when they went on a losing streak.
The Celtics had a 7-game winning streak in January, but also had a winless month in February where they suffered a 13-game losing streak which they never recovered from.[3] Rookie Dino Radja was named to the All-Rookie Second Team. Following the season, longtime Celtics center Robert Parish signed as an unrestricted free agent with the Charlotte Hornets , and Kevin Gamble signed with the Miami Heat .
