The 2014–15 Charlotte Hornets season was the franchise's 25th season in the National Basketball Association (NBA). This was the team's first year as the Charlotte Hornets since 2002. The Team had been known as the Charlotte Bobcats since its revival in 2004. However, when the team formally changed its name to the Hornets on May 20, 2014; they also reclaimed the history and records of the original Hornets from the 1988–89 NBA season through the 2001–02 NBA season. The New Orleans Pelicans retain the remaining history that exists under the New Orleans(/Oklahoma City) Hornets name from the 2002–03 NBA season through the 2012–13 NBA season. The team was led by head coach Steve Clifford and assistant coaches Patrick Ewing, Bob Beyer, Stephen Silas, Bob Weiss, and Mark Price.[1]
