Charlotte Hornets: Five Big Decisions Ahead of the 2025 Offseason

I preview the Charlotte Hornets 2025 offseason and answer several big picture questions surrounding their most important upcoming decisions.

The Charlotte Hornets have completed their first year under a new ownership group and front office. I’m impressed with the decisions throughout the year. They currently have the league’s longest active playoff drought at nine seasons, and they’ll likely extend it. But for the first time in a while, it’s clear both sides are in lockstep about their direction.

Last month, I spoke to James Plowright of CLTure about the Hornets' offseason. I highly suggest you check it out as a companion for this piece. Here, I want to take a deeper look at some of their players with pending contract situations and give some deeper thoughts on their outlook.
