1996–97 Golden State Warriors season
The 1996-97 NBA season was the Warriors' 51st season in the NBA and 35th in the San Francisco Bay Area.[1] Due to extensive renovations at Oakland Coliseum Arena, the Warriors played their home games at the San Jose Arena. In the offseason, the team signed free agent Mark Price, and traded Rony Seikaly to the Orlando Magic for Felton Spencer early into the season. The Warriors finished last place in the Pacific Division with a 30–52 record. Latrell Sprewell led them in scoring with 24.2 points per game and was selected for the 1997 NBA All-Star Game. This season also marked an end of an era as Chris Mullin was traded to the Indiana Pacers the following season. Also following the season, Price was dealt to the Orlando Magic, and head coach Rick Adelman was fired.
