The 1992–93 NBA season was the fifth season for the Miami Heat in the National Basketball Association (NBA).[1] In the 1992 NBA draft, the Heat selected Harold Miner from the University of Southern California with the twelfth overall pick.[2][3][4][5][6] During the off-season, the Heat acquired John Salley from the Detroit Pistons.[7][8][9][10] However, the team got off to a sluggish 10–25 start as they were bitten by the injury bug, with most notably second-year guard Steve Smith missing the first 31 games of the season with a knee injury.[11][12][13][14] Meanwhile, Kevin Edwards only played just 40 games, and was benched after starting in 30 of them,[15][16][17] and Willie Burton only played just 26 games due to a wrist injury.[18][19][20] The team held an 18–31 record at the All-Star break.[21]
With Smith back in the lineup, the Heat played solid basketball in February and March winning 18 of 28 games. Ultimately, they were not able to capitalize on the momentum of their first playoff appearance last year, and ended up losing six of their final seven games. They ended up finishing fifth in the Atlantic Division, and 11th in the Eastern Conference with a 36–46 record,[22] finishing five games behind the 8th-seeded Indiana Pacers, who defeated the Heat, 94–88 at Market Square Arena on the final day of the regular season to gain the final playoff spot in the East.[23][24][25][26]
Glen Rice led the team in scoring averaging 19.0 points per game, while Rony Seikaly averaged 17.1 points, 11.8 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game, and Smith provided the team with 16.0 points and 5.6 assists per game in 48 games. In addition, Grant Long averaged 14.0 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game, while Edwards contributed 13.9 points and 1.7 steals per game, Bimbo Coles provided with 10.6 points and 4.6 assists per game, and Miner contributed 10.3 points per game off the bench,[27] and won the Slam Dunk Contest during the All-Star Weekend in Salt Lake City, Utah.[28][29][30][31]
Following the season, Edwards, one of the few players left from the team's inaugural season, signed as a free agent with the New Jersey Nets.[32][33][34]
