Charlotte Hornets History

The original Charlotte Hornets franchise joined the NBA in 1988 and, thanks to players such as Larry Johnson, Alonzo Mourning and Kendall Gill (and later, Glen Rice, Anthony Mason and Jamal Mashburn), enjoyed substantial success in the 1990s, starting with the 1992–93 season. Owner George Shinn moved the franchise to New Orleans in 2002.

But the NBA returned to Charlotte for the 2004–05 season with the expansion Bobcats, led by owner Robert L. Johnson, the first African-American majority owner of a team in one of the four major sports. In 2010, Michael Jordan took over majority ownership of the franchise, and in 2014, Jordan's team re-adopted the Charlotte Hornets name after the previous New Orleans Hornets became the Pelicans.

During the 2017–18 season, four-time All-Star Kemba Walker became Charlotte's all-time leading scorer, surpassing original Hornet Dell Curry.

    This event was an opportunity for me to see my grandkids and daughter. Always good when we get together. Would have been even better if the Hornets won the game.

  • HORNETS GAME

    by BELLS on 2/4/25Spectrum Center - CharlotteRating: 3 out of 5

    WE HAD A GOOD TIME AT GAME. BUT, THE FOOD WAS REALLY BAD. MY SON HAD A BURGER, ALMOST UNEDITABLE....THE PRETZEL WAS ROCK HARD, NO FLAVOR. THE NACHOS WERE A CUP OF CHEESE AND BAGGED CHIP........FOOD WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED. ALSO, MY KIDS GOT DRINKS AND THE CAPS WERE TAKEN OFF THEM. MY 5 YEAR OLD WALKED UP 9 FLIGHTS TO OUR SEATS AND ALMOST SPILLED SEVREAL TIMES. WE WILL NOT BE DOING THAT AGAIN. THAT POLICY IS RIDICULOUS

    The Hornets-Lakers game was such a fun evening. Packed arena. Lots of excitement. Big stars in town & a great Hornet effort in a close loss. I’m going again next week

    by Kiwiet on 1/28/25Spectrum Center - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    Headed to the box office on game night, not open🤷‍♀️, had to scan a code on the glass window, downloaded my tix and headed in… good game, Hornets 🐝 were hitting a lot of 3-pointers, but was there for the ‘halftime’ performance of Shelby J.

  • Go Hornets! Buzzzzzz!

    by Kristin n Tim on 1/27/25Spectrum Center - CharlotteRating: 4 out of 5

    Great game! Good venue! It was our 1st time to the Queen City. We wanted to experience a local game. We had a lot of fun!!! Go Hornets!!!! Buzzzzzzzz! 😂 The only things that needs improvement are: safety railings in the upper sections (do not attempt if you have any type of vertigo or dizzy spells... seriously), more food venues, and more staffing. The staff we did encounter were awesome!!! Thank y'all for a great day!!!
