1992–93 Indiana Pacers season

The team played mediocre basketball once again, losing six straight games between December and January after a 13–10 start, then went on a 7-game losing streak in February, and held a 23–28 record at the All-Star break. However, they would recover and play above .500 for the remainder of the regular season. On the final day of the regular season, the Pacers defeated the Miami Heat, 94–88 at home on April 24, 1993, finishing in fifth place in the Central Division with a 41–41 record, and winning a tie-breaker over the Orlando Magic for the #8 seed in the Eastern Conference.

Reggie Miller led the team in scoring averaging 21.2 points per game, and tied in first place in the league with 167 three-point field goals, while 2-time Sixth Man of the Year Detlef Schrempf became the team's starting small forward, as he averaged 19.1 points, 9.5 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game, and was selected for the 1993 NBA All-Star Game in Salt Lake City, Utah. In addition, Rik Smits provided the team with 14.3 points and 5.3 rebounds per game, while Richardson contributed 10.4 points and 7.7 assists per game, second-year forward Dale Davis provided with 8.9 points, 8.8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game, and Vern Fleming contributed 9.5 points and 3.0 assists per game off the bench.

However, in the Eastern Conference First Round of the playoffs, the Pacers would lose in four games to the top-seeded New York Knicks; this was the fourth consecutive year that the Pacers lost in the opening round of the playoffs.

Following the season, Schrempf was traded to the Seattle SuperSonics, while head coach Bob Hill was fired, and George McCloud was released to free agency, and left to play overseas in Italy.
