Despite showing improvement in each of the last two seasons, the Charlotte Hornets decided to part ways with head coach James Borrego last month following a blowout loss to the Atlanta Hawks in the Play-In tournament.
The move came as a shock to many, but there's a large portion of the fan base that believes it was in the organization's best interest to move on to a more experienced coach who can elevate this team to the next level, which is becoming a legitimate threat in the Eastern Conference.
Tuesday morning, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported that the Hornets are set to begin interviewing candidates for the head coaching vacancy.
