Despite clinching a spot in the postseason via the play-in tournament for the second consecutive season, the Hornets lost 132–103 to the Atlanta Hawks, and have not played in the playoffs since 2016.[1]

After failing to make the playoffs in his four seasons as head coach, James Borrego was fired at the end of the season. He posted a 138–163 (.458) record during his tenure with the Hornets.[2]

With the Memphis Grizzlies winning the Southwest Division title for the first time in Grizzlies' franchise history, Charlotte is now the only NBA franchise to have never won a division title, having gone 32 seasons without winning a division title since the franchise began play in the 1988–89 season.
