The team was rebranded as the Charlotte Hornets for the 2014 season and reclaimed the history of the original Charlotte Hornets. The Hornets franchise have won no Division titles to date. They’ve made it to the Eastern Conference Semifinals 4 times but have yet to secure a Conference title or appear in an NBA Finals game.
