2002–03 Golden State Warriors season
The 2002–03 NBA season was the Warriors' 57th season in the National Basketball Association, and 41st in the San Francisco Bay Area. Under new head coach Eric Musselman, the Warriors began to show signs of life after a slow start losing 11 of their first 15 games. For the first time in nearly a decade, the Warriors reached the.500 mark late in the season with a 30–30 record as of March 4. However, they would win just eight of their final 22 games to finish sixth in the Pacific Division with a 38–44 record. Second-year guard Gilbert Arenas was named Most Improved Player of The Year, and second-year star Jason Richardson won the Slam Dunk Contest in Atlanta for the second year in a row. Following the season, Arenas signed as a free agent with the Washington Wizards, Antawn Jamison and Danny Fortson were both traded to the Dallas Mavericks, Bob Sura was dealt to the Detroit Pistons and Chris Mills retired.Draft
