Charlotte is in disarray. Its recent success in the professional sports world have come from the NHL’s Carolina Hurricanes amazing post season rally and the NFL’s Carolina Panthers’ Super Bowl run in 2015, both teams that unfortunately fell short of taking home its league’s top prize. For the Charlotte Hornets, no such success has followed.
No conference championships, no finals appearances, and no hardware has graced a single shelf for the lowly Eastern Conference team.
It’s only bright spot, a New York native that had become the heart and soul of the team and its fan base.
