1990–91 Washington Bullets season

The 1990–91 NBA season was the Bullets' 30th season in the National Basketball Association.[1] In the offseason, the Bullets acquired second-year forward Pervis Ellison from the Sacramento Kings. Bernard King provided a great story as he came all the way back from knee surgery he suffered while playing for the New York Knicks in 1985, to finish third in the league in scoring with 28.4 points per game. He was also selected for the 1991 NBA All-Star Game. However, with a nine-game losing streak between February and March, the Bullets struggles continued as they finished fourth in the Atlantic Division with a 30–52 record. Harvey Grant showed improvement averaging 18.2 points per game, and finished second in Most Improved Player voting behind Scott Skiles of the Orlando Magic.
