1998 Denver Nuggets
The Denver Nuggets of 1997 to 1998 achieved the third worst record in NBA history by tying the team at number 5 on the list with an 11-71 win-loss record. However, there was a point where they were on track of having the worst record ever. At the 40 game mark, they only had 2-wins to show anchored on 16 straight losses. The good thing was the team made a strong push to get out of that ignonimity.
