The 1993-94 NBA season was the Mavericks' 14th season in the NBA.^[1] Despite the addition of Kentucky star Jamal Mashburn from the 1993 NBA Draft, the Mavericks misery continued as they lost 23 of their first 24 games, on their way to a 3-40 record at the end of January. Along the way, they traded Derek Harper to the New York Knicks for Tony Campbell. The Mavericks finished last place in the Midwest Division with an awful 13-69 record. Following the season, Quinn Buckner was fired as head coach.
