The 1992–93 NBA season was the Hawks' 44th season in the National Basketball Association, and 25th season in Atlanta. Prior to the start of the season, the Hawks acquired point guard Mookie Blaylock from the New Jersey Nets. After losing their season opener at home to the New York Knicks 106–94, the Hawks would defeat the defending champion Chicago Bulls on the road, 100–99 at the Chicago Stadium on November 7. However, they got off to a rough start losing five of their first seven games, which led them to a mediocre 12–17 start in early January. With a 26–31 record, they would win 12 of their next 13 games while posting a 12–3 record in March, on their way to finishing fourth in the Central Division with a 43–39 record.

Dominique Wilkins surpassed Bob Pettit as the Hawks all-time scoring leader, finishing second in the league in scoring averaging 29.9 points per game. He was named to the All-NBA Second Team and selected for the 1993 NBA All-Star Game. However, in the first round of the playoffs, the Hawks would be swept by the Bulls in three straight games. Following the season, head coach Bob Weiss was fired.

For the season, the Hawks changed their uniforms which lasted until 1995.
