As of today, the Charlotte Hornets sit three games out of the 8th seed and have a 2.2% chance to make the playoffs according to ESPN’s BPI playoff odds. They presumably will miss out on postseason basketball once again for the third straight season.
In addition to missing the playoffs, the Hornets are once again hovering around the 36 win mark for the third consecutive season which shows how consistently mediocre the team has been despite several stellar seasons from their captain, Kemba Walker.
The city of Charlotte has grown to love Kemba over the years, and we’ve been fortunate enough to watch one of our own develop into a perennial All-Star and even an All-Star starter this year in his city.
