The 1991-92 Dallas Mavericks season was a challenging period for the franchise. The team struggled significantly throughout the NBA season, finishing with a record of 22 wins and 60 losses. This performance placed them at the bottom of the Midwest Division and tied for the worst record in the league with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Under head coach Richie Adubato, the Mavericks faced difficulties in both offense and defense, contributing to their poor record. Key players included Rolando Blackman and Derek Harper, but their efforts were not enough to turn the season around. The Mavericks’ struggles this season were part of a broader decline that the team faced in the early 1990s. Despite these challenges, the season served as a pivotal moment for the organization, eventually leading to a rebuilding phase in the following years.
- Regular Season Record: 22-60
