The 1989–90 NBA season was the Warriors' 44th season in the National Basketball Association, and 27th in the San Francisco Bay Area.[1] With the 14th pick in the 1989 NBA draft, the Warriors selected Tim Hardaway from the University of Texas-El Paso.[2][3] Hardaway teamed with All-Star forward Chris Mullin, and second-year star Mitch Richmond to form the threesome later known as Run TMC. The Warriors got off to a bad start losing 14 of their first 18 games, but posted two six-game winning streaks afterwards winning 12 of their next 15 games, and held a 23–24 record at the All-Star break.[4] At midseason, the team traded Winston Garland to the Los Angeles Clippers.[5][6][7] However, midway through the season, they struggled and fell below .500, missing the playoffs by finishing fifth in the Pacific Division with a 37–45 record.[8]

Mullin averaged 25.1 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game, and was named to the All-NBA Third Team, and was selected for the 1990 NBA All-Star Game.[9][10][11][12] In addition, Richmond averaged 22.1 points per game, while Terry Teagle provided the team with 16.1 points per game, and Hardaway contributed 14.7 points, 8.7 assists and 2.1 steals per game, and was named to the NBA All-Rookie First Team. Rookie guard Sarunas Marciulionis contributed 12.1 points per game off the bench, while Rod Higgins provided with 11.1 points and 5.1 rebounds per game, and Manute Bol led the team with 3.2 blocks per game.[13]

In a 120–115 road win over the Boston Celtics on January 21, 1990, Hardaway, Mullin and Richmond all surpassed 20 points in the same game for the first time.[14][15] The Warriors also led the NBA in scoring during the season.[16] Following the season, Teagle was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers,[17][18][19] and Bol was dealt to the Philadelphia 76ers.[20][21][22]

For the season, the Warriors changed their uniforms, which remained in use until 1997.[23][24]
