The Huskies were 10–20 overall in the regular season and 5–13 in conference play, tied for eighth in the standings. There was no conference tournament this season; last played in 1990, it resumed in 2002.

Built over seventy years earlier in 1927,[2] Hec Edmundson Pavilion underwent a renovation this season and reopened in the fall of 2000. The Huskies' interim home court was KeyArena at Seattle Center, the home of the NBA's Seattle SuperSonics. Washington won just twice at KeyArena in Pac-10 play, a one-point upset of UCLA in early January,[3] and a four-point win over rival Washington State in March; in between, they lost seven consecutive home games.[4]
