Team Information

Charlotte Hornets games bring NBA energy to the heart of Charlotte, North Carolina—powered by a franchise with a distinct identity and a fanbase that’s embraced the team through every era. The Hornets compete in the National Basketball Association (NBA) as part of the Eastern Conference’s Southeast Division, and their signature teal, purple, and gray look has been a defining part of basketball culture dating back to the 1990s. From the moment the original expansion team began play in 1988, Hornets basketball has been tied to the city’s personality and pride.

The franchise’s story includes two major chapters. The original Charlotte Hornets era (1988–2002) reached the playoffs multiple times in the 1990s—driven by strong fan support and star power. The NBA returned to Charlotte with a new expansion franchise in 2004 (the Charlotte Bobcats), and in 2014 the Hornets name returned to Charlotte as the New Orleans franchise rebranded to the Pelicans and Charlotte reclaimed the Hornets history and records associated with the 1988–2002 team. In the current era, Charlotte’s 2015–16 season (48 wins) stands out as a benchmark year before a first-round playoff exit.

Hornets history is filled with memorable names that helped define the team on the court and in the community. Franchise standouts include Larry Johnson, Alonzo Mourning, and Glen Rice from the 1990s spotlight years, plus icons like Muggsy Bogues and sharpshooter Dell Curry. More recently, Kemba Walker became a cornerstone of the 2010s era—credited as a longtime fan favorite and franchise leader in multiple categories. On the sideline, notable coaches include Paul Silas and Steve Clifford, with Clifford coaching Charlotte to the 2014 playoff berth and that 2015–16 48-win season.

Game night is centered at Spectrum Center, where the Hornets play in front of a basketball capacity of 19,077. Opened in 2005, the arena sets the stage for the team’s modern era, and the Hornets’ “Buzz City” identity has become a key part of how Charlotte presents itself—built around the hornet motif and the city’s energy and uptown culture. And whether you’re a first-timer or a regular, Hugo the Hornet is a big part of the in-arena experience and the franchise’s longstanding game-night presentation.

Today’s Hornets often lean into a style built around pace, ball movement, and guard-driven creation, with LaMelo Ball recognized as the franchise centerpiece and offensive focal point when healthy. Rival matchups can also add extra juice to the night—especially familiar Southeast Division showdowns with the Miami Heat and Atlanta Hawks, plus recurring Eastern Conference competition with the Washington Wizards.
