With the return of All-Star guard Tim Hardaway, who missed all of last season with a knee injury, the Warriors won their first five games of the season, winning 8 of their 13 games in November. However, they soon fell apart and struggled losing 18 of their next 20 games, posting ten and eight-game losing streaks respectively, as Pierce, Seikaly and Chris Mullin all missed large parts of the season due to injuries. All of this led to the resignation of Nelson after a 14–31 start. Under replacement Bob Lanier, the team finished sixth in the Pacific Division with a 26–56 record. Latrell Sprewell averaged 20.6 points per game and was selected for the 1995 NBA All-Star Game, while Hardaway averaged 20.1 points, 9.3 assists and 1.4 steals per game, and Marshall was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team. Following the season, Pierce signed as a free agent with the Indiana Pacers, Rogers was traded to the newly expansion Toronto Raptors, and Lanier was fired as coach.
