The 1992-93 NBA season was the 76ers 44th season in the NBA and 30th season in Philadelphia.^[1] During the offseason, the Sixers acquired Jeff Hornacek, Andrew Lang and Tim Perry from the Phoenix Suns. During a nationally televised broadcast game between the Suns and the Sixers, former 76ers forward Charles Barkley received a standing ovation from his former home fans at the Spectrum. When the Sixers team was introduced the crowd booed loudly at them.^[2]

The Sixers also suffered two defeats that were greater than 50 points (at Kings 154–98, at Sonics 149–93). As the NBA in the 1990s emphasized more defensive play, head coach Doug Moe tried to implement an up-tempo attack offense similar to his Nuggets teams of the 1980s, which failed miserably. He was replaced by Fred Carter during the 1993 season. The Sixers finished sixth in the Atlantic Division with a 26–56 record. Following the season, Hersey Hawkins was traded to the Charlotte Hornets, and Armen Gilliam signed as a free agent with the New Jersey Nets.
