The 1989-90 NBA season was the Washington Bullets' 29th season in the National Basketball Association. The Bullets got off to a fast start winning five of their first six games. However, they would struggle losing 10 of their next 13 games, but would climb back into playoff connection with a 12-11 record in mid December. However, their playoff hopes faded quickly as they lost 14 of their next 16 games. The Bullets finished fourth in the Atlantic Division with a 31–51 record despite stellar seasons from both Jeff Malone and Bernard King, who averaged 24.3 and 22.3 points per game respectively. John "Hot Plate" Williams averaged 18.2 points per game, but injuries limited him to just 18 games. Following the season, Malone was traded to the Utah Jazz.
