The Warriors won their final five games of the season, finishing fourth in the Pacific Division with a 44–38 record. In the first round of the playoffs, the Warriors would again pull of an upset as they defeated the 2nd-seeded San Antonio Spurs in four games after losing Game 1. However, they would lose to the Los Angeles Lakers four games to one in the semifinals. Hardaway and Mullin were both selected for the 1991 NBA All-Star Game.
