1994–95 Philadelphia 76ers season

The 1994–95 NBA season was the 76ers 46th season in the National Basketball Association, and 32nd season in Philadelphia.[1] During the offseason, the Sixers signed unrestricted free agent Scott Williams, then signed free agent Willie Burton early into the season. Under new head coach John Lucas, and despite second-year star Shawn Bradley playing a full season, the Sixers struggled after a 10–16 start losing nine consecutive games, as Jeff Malone played just 19 games due to a foot injury. The Sixers finished sixth in the Atlantic Division with a 24–58 record. Top draft pick Sharone Wright out of Clemson was selected to the All-Rookie Second Team. Guard Dana Barros was named Most Improved Player of The Year, averaging 20.6 points per game while shooting .464 from three-point range, and .899 from the free throw line. He was also selected for the 1995 NBA All-Star Game. Following the season, Barros departed and signed as a free agent with the Boston Celtics.
