The 1993–94 Utah Jazz season was the team's 20th in the NBA.^[1] During the offseason, the Jazz signed unrestricted free agent Tom Chambers. John Stockton led the league in assists for the seventh straight season as Karl Malone joined the list in all-time points scored topping the 19,000 point mark. At midseason, the Jazz traded Jeff Malone to the Philadelphia 76ers for Jeff Hornacek. With the addition of Hornacek, the Jazz went on to win ten consecutive games finishing third in the Midwest Division with a 53–29 record. In the first round of the playoffs, the Jazz defeated the 4th-seeded San Antonio Spurs after losing Game 1. In the semifinals, they took a 3–0 lead over the 8th-seeded Denver Nuggets. However, the Jazz would lose the next three games to the Nuggets, then finally win Game 7 and advance to the next round. In the Western Conference Finals, they lost five games to the Houston Rockets. Following the season, Tyrone Corbin was traded to the Atlanta Hawks.
