1991–92 Atlanta Hawks season
The 1991–92 NBA season was the Hawks' 43rd season in the National Basketball Association, and 24th season in Atlanta. During the offseason, the Hawks acquired Maurice Cheeks from the New York Knicks. The Hawks had a complete change of guards turning over their backcourt to second-year guard Rumeal Robinson, and top draft pick Stacey Augmon out of UNLV. However, with a 22–20 record in late January, Dominique Wilkins ruptured his achilles tendon and was out for the remainder of the season. Without Wilkins, the Hawks would lose 24 of their final 40 games, including a 7-game losing streak. They finished fifth in the Central Division with a 38–44 record, missing the playoffs and losing a tie-breaker for the #8 seed in the Eastern Conference to the Miami Heat.
Due to injury, Wilkins did not participate in the 1992 NBA All-Star Game along with Kevin Willis, who was selected to the All-NBA Third Team averaging 18.3 points and 15.5 rebounds per game. Augmon made the All-Rookie First Team averaging 13.3 points and 1.5 steals per game. Following the season, Robinson was traded to the New Jersey Nets and Cheeks was released.Draft picks
