The Charlotte Hornets just capped off the worst three-game stretch in NBA history. They have lost their last three games by a whopping 131 points. They lost by 53 points to the Portland Trail Blazers, by 42 points to the Sacramento Kings, and by 36 points last night to the Golden State Warriors. That is the biggest losing margin over three consecutive games in league history. Will the Charlotte Hornets be able to get on track sooner rather than later?

It has been another miserable season for the Hornets. They are 14-43 and have the NBA’s third-worst record. They are on their way to missing the NBA Playoffs for the ninth consecutive season. Their offense has been horrendous this season. Charlotte is 28th in points scored, 30th in field goal percentage, and 28th in three-point percentage.
Charlotte’s defense has been mediocre this season. They are 13th in points allowed, 18th in opposing field goal percentage, and fourth in opposing three-point percentage. The Hornets tried to remake its roster at the 2025 NBA Trade Deadline, but those plans fell through. They attempted to trade for Dalton Knecht from the Lakers in exchange for Center Mark Williams. The trade was rescinded when Williams reportedly failed a physical.
Final Thoughts
The Charlotte Hornets look to stop the embarrassment on Thursday when they visit the Dallas Mavericks. These teams played on January 20 and the Charlotte Hornets won 110-105. Charlotte has some talent on its roster, but it has been another lost season for the listless franchise.
