The 2002–03 season was the 33rd season of the Portland Trail Blazers in the National Basketball Association (NBA).^[1] The Blazers finished 50–32, making the playoffs for the 21st consecutive year and 26th year of the last 27. In the playoffs, the 6th-seeded Blazers battled the Dallas Mavericks in the first round, and fell four games to three. (The NBA had changed all playoff series to be best-of-seven; previously first-round series had been best-of-five).

The Blazers' 107–95 Game 7 loss to the Mavericks in Dallas would be the venerable franchise's last playoff game for six years, as the historic postseason streak ended in 2003–04 with a mediocre 41-41 record; two seasons followed in which they failed to win even 30 games. Following the season, Scottie Pippen re-signed as a free agent with the Chicago Bulls, and Arvydas Sabonis, who came out of his retirement to play this season retired for the second time.
