1991–92 Sacramento Kings season
The 1991–92 NBA season was the Kings' 43rd season in the National Basketball Association, and seventh season in Sacramento.[1] The Kings continued to tinker with their roster in every way by trading top draft pick Billy Owens to the Golden State Warriors for Mitch Richmond, while acquiring Spud Webb from the Atlanta Hawks, and Dennis Hopson from the Chicago Bulls early into the season. However, their struggles continued as the Kings road losing streak climbed up to 43 consecutive road losses before defeating the Orlando Magic 95–93 at the Orlando Arena on November 23. The Kings would change coaches again firing Dick Motta after a 7–18 start to the season. However, under his replacement Rex Hughes, the Kings went on a 10-game losing streak in March finishing last place in the Pacific Division with a 29–53 record. Following the season, Hopson retired after just five seasons in the NBA.
