1999–2000 Washington Wizards season

The 1999–2000 NBA season was the Wizards' 39th season in the National Basketball Association.[1] In the 1999 NBA draft, the Wizards selected Richard Hamilton from the University of Connecticut with the seventh overall pick.[2][3][4][5][6] During the off-season, the team acquired Isaac Austin from the Orlando Magic,[7][8][9] signed free agents Aaron Williams and Michael Smith,[10][11] and hired Gar Heard as their new head coach.[12] The biggest news would involve the front office as retired All-Star guard, and former Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan joined the Wizards as the team's vice president in January.[13][14][15][16] After winning their first game of the season, the Wizards continued to under achieve posting a 7-game losing streak. With a 14–30 record at midseason, Heard was fired as head coach, and was replaced with Darrell Walker,[17] and the team signed free agent Don Reid, who was previously released by the Detroit Pistons.[18] Despite posting a solid 10–7 record in March, the Wizards finished last place in the Atlantic Division with a 29–53 record.[19]
