The 1999–2000 Golden State Warriors season was the 54th season for the Golden State Warriors in the National Basketball Association, and their 38th season in the San Francisco Bay Area. The city of Oakland, California hosted the 2000 NBA All-Star Game at The Arena in Oakland this season. During the off-season, the Warriors acquired Mookie Blaylock from the Atlanta Hawks, and acquired point guard, and first-round draft pick Vonteego Cummings out of the University of Pittsburgh from the Indiana Pacers.
The Warriors struggled losing 16 of their first 18 games of the regular season, as head coach P. J. Carlesimo was fired after a 6–21 start to the season, and was replaced with General Manager Garry St. Jean, where the team suffered a 12-game losing streak between December and January. Second-year star Antawn Jamison, Chris Mills, Erick Dampier and Terry Cummings all missed large parts of the season due to injuries. At mid-season, the Warriors traded John Starks to the Chicago Bulls, and acquired second-year guard Larry Hughes, and former Warriors forward Billy Owens from the Philadelphia 76ers in a three-team trade. The Warriors lost 23 of their final 26 games of the season, and finished in sixth place in the Pacific Division with a 19–63 record, missing the NBA playoffs for the sixth consecutive year.
Hughes averaged 22.7 points, 5.9 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.9 steals per game in 32 games after the trade, while Jamison showed improvement averaging 19.6 points and 8.3 rebounds per game, but was out for the remainder of the season due to a season-ending knee injury after 43 games. In addition, Donyell Marshall averaged 14.2 points and 10.0 rebounds per game, while Mills provided the team with 16.1 points and 6.2 rebounds per game in only just 20 games, Jason Caffey provided with 12.0 points and 6.8 rebounds per game, and Blaylock contributed 11.3 points, 6.7 assists and 2.0 steals per game, and led the Warriors with 101 three-point field goals. Meanwhile, Vonteego Cummings contributed 9.4 points and 3.3 assists per game off the bench, while on the defensive side, Dampier averaged 8.0 points and 6.4 rebounds per game in only just 21 games, Terry Cummings contributed 8.4 points and 4.9 rebounds per game in only just 22 games, Owens provided with 6.4 points and 6.8 rebounds per game in 16 games, and Adonal Foyle averaged 5.5 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game.
During the NBA All-Star weekend at The Arena in Oakland in Oakland, Jamison was selected for the NBA Rookie Challenge Game, as a member of the Sophomores team, and also selected to participate in the NBA Slam Dunk Contest; however, he did not participate in either event due to injury. Before the mid-season trade, Hughes also participated in the Slam Dunk Contest while playing for the 76ers. The Warriors finished last in the NBA in home-game attendance, with an attendance of 509,171 at The Arena in Oakland during the regular season, which was 29th in the league.
Following the season, Marshall was traded to the Utah Jazz in an off-season four-team trade, while Caffey and Owens were both dealt to the Milwaukee Bucks in a three-team trade, Terry Cummings retired, and St. Jean was fired as head coach.
