# Temporada 1992-93 de los New Jersey Nets

La temporada 1992-93 fue la decimoséptima de los New Jersey Nets en la NBA, tras la fusión de la liga con la ABA, donde había jugado nueve temporadas, y la decimoquinta en su ubicación en Nueva Jersey. La temporada regular acabó con 43 victorias y 39 derrotas, ocupando el sexto puesto de la conferencia Este, clasificándose para los playoffs, en los que perdieron en primera ronda ante Cleveland Cavaliers.
Después de la temporada, se produjo una tragedia cuando Dražen Petrović murió en un accidente automovilístico en Alemania a la edad de 28 años, el 7 de junio de 1993; Petrović iba pasajero en el coche conducido por su novia que perdió el control y chocó de frente contra un camión en una carretera empapada por la lluvia cerca de Múnich. Su novia, Klara Szalantzy, de 23 años, y otro pasajero, Hilal Haene, de 53 años, resultaron gravemente heridos.
