Complete list since the Play-in loss last season:
Get blown out of 2022 Play-In game, Miles Bridges chucks his mouthpiece at a fan after his ejection, hits a different fan
Team fires James Borrego weeks after the season ends, having extended his contract for several years the previous offseason.
Montrezl Harrell gets arrested for felony d*** charges (later reduced to misdemeanor)
Team hires Kenny Atkinson after a near two-month search, just a week or so before the draft
Miles Bridges accidentally posts Instagram picture of him drinking lean. Deletes the picture and says "Pink Lemonade lol"
Kenny Atkinson pulls out after winning title with Golden State. Team scrambles to hire a new head coach on the fly after turning down Mike D'Antoni to sign Atkinson.
Team hastily hires former fired Hornets coach Steve Clifford again, on a deal with an out after just one year, instilling no confidence in the hire.
Team trades 13th pick for scraps after believing they had too many young players to develop. Scraps are a late 2023 1st, and 4 2nds, for a team that already has a lot of fringe talent to develop and not enough top end talent.
On the eve of his free agency, Miles Bridges gets arrested for beating his wife, wife posts Instagram pictures and medical documents detailing the damage he did and videos involving his kids who saw the incident.
Team, understandably in shock, proceeds to make no moves all season long instead of making moves to pick a direction to either rebuild or compete without Bridges.
2022 lotto pick James Bouknight injures hand right before summer league and loses entire offseason of development.
2022 2nd round pick Scottie Lewis breaks leg in summer league practice and misses offseason, and probably the upcoming season. Wasn't under contract, but still... jesus
Miles Bridges' court dates get pushed back all offseason long, with no clarity on the situation in sight.
Hornets go into training camp with Mason Plumlee, Mark Williams, Nick Richards, and Kai Jones as its centers. Steve Clifford preeminently locks Plumlee in as the starter, despite a horrific 2021-22 season, 1st round picks invested in Williams and Jones, and a need for rim protection.
Hornets go into training camp without a backup ball handler, leaving the offense to die without a ball handler to get the young backups the ball in positions to score.
Hornets go 0-5 in the preseason.
LaMelo Ball sprains an ankle in preseason, causing him to miss regular season action
James Bouknight arrested for DUI.

They got to shut everybody down and hope for LaMelo + Wemby
