The 1989–90 NBA season was the Warriors' 44th season in the National Basketball Association, and 27th in the San Francisco Bay Area. With the fourteenth pick in the 1989 NBA draft, the Warriors drafted Tim Hardaway, who teamed with All-Star forward Chris Mullin, and second-year star Mitch Richmond to form the threesome later known as Run TMC. The Warriors got off to a bad start losing 14 of their first 18 games, but posted two six-game winning streaks afterwards winning 12 of their next 15 games. However, midway through the season they struggled and fell below .500, missing the playoffs by finishing fifth in the Pacific Division with a 37–45 record. In a win over the Boston Celtics in the 38th game of the season, Hardaway, Mullin and Richmond all surpassed 20 points in the same game for the first time. The Warriors led the NBA in scoring during the season.
