1998–99 Golden State Warriors season
The 1998–99 NBA season was the Warriors' 53rd season in the National Basketball Association, and 37th in the San Francisco Bay Area.[1] In the 1998 NBA draft, the Warriors selected Vince Carter out of the University of North Carolina with the fifth pick, but soon traded him to the Toronto Raptors for his college teammate Antawn Jamison. The team also acquired John Starks, Chris Mills and Terry Cummings from the New York Knicks during the offseason. Starks previously played for the Warriors during the 1988–89 season. After losing their first five games, the Warriors started to show signs of improvement in a lockout shortened season. Despite playing 32 games fewer, they won two more games than the previous year, finishing sixth in the Pacific Division with a 21–29 record. Jamison was selected to the All-Rookie Second Team. Following the season, Bimbo Coles was traded to the Atlanta Hawks, Muggsy Bogues signed as a free agent with the Toronto Raptors, and Tony Delk signed with the Sacramento Kings.
