The 2001-02 NBA season was the Warriors' 56th season in the NBA and 40th in the San Francisco Bay Area.[1] The season saw the Warriors draft Jason Richardson from Michigan State with the fifth overall pick in the 2001 NBA draft. The acquisition of Richardson sought to help with the Warriors struggles the past seasons. Instead, their struggles continued and they finished last place in the Pacific Division with a 21–61 record. Despite their continuing struggles, Richardson won the Slam Dunk Contest and was invited to play in the Rookie Game during All-Star Weekend in Philadelphia. Following the season, Larry Hughes signed as a free agent with the Washington Wizards and Mookie Blaylock retired.
