The 2019-20 Charlotte Hornets season marked a period of rebuilding and development. Under head coach James Borrego, the team finished with a record of 23-42, placing them 10th in the Eastern Conference. The season was notably impacted by the emergence of Devonte’ Graham, who averaged 18.2 points and 7.5 assists per game, becoming a bright spot for the franchise.
Charlotte missed the playoffs for the fourth consecutive year, reflecting the challenges of a roster undergoing significant transition, especially after the departure of Kemba Walker. The season was also shortened due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which halted play in March 2020. Despite the challenges, younger players like P.J. Washington and Miles Bridges showed promise, giving fans hope for future development. The Hornets focused on building a competitive team for the coming years, looking to add talent and depth through the draft and free agency.
