Charlotte Hornets: Who's Going to be Around for the Long Haul?

Since the turn of the century, the Charlotte Hornets have reached the NBA Playoffs five times.

Most recently, the group earned a spot in the postseason during the 2015-16 season, when the team finished 48-34 under head coach Steve Clifford. Led by Kemba Walker, the Hornets fell in a seven-game first round series against Miami, and have not returned to the playoffs since.

After finishing last year's campaign 19-63, the 2025-26 season likely won't mark the group's return to the playoffs, but head coach Charles Lee and company have added talent to the roster that should prepare Lee's unit to be a postseason team in the near future.
