The 1991–92 Seattle SuperSonics season was the 24th season of the Seattle SuperSonics in the National Basketball Association (NBA). After a 7–3 start to the season, the Sonics seemed to lose focus as head coach K. C. Jones was fired with the team holding a mediocre 18–18 record. After splitting four games under interim Bob Kloppenburg, the Sonics would hired George Karl, who returned after a four-year absence from coaching in the NBA. Under Karl, the SuperSonics finished the season strong finishing fourth in the Pacific Division with a 47–35 record, reaching the playoffs as the #6 seed in the Western Conference. Ricky Pierce led the team in scoring averaging 21.7 points per game. In the first round, they defeated the 3rd-seeded Golden State Warriors in four games, but then lost the Conference semifinals to the Utah Jazz in five games.
