Hornets extend head coach Charles Lee after franchise's best season in 10 years
The Charlotte Hornets posted a 28-10 record in their final 38 regular-season games, catapulting themselves out of the Eastern Conference cellar and into the play-in tournament, where they won their first postseason game since 2016 in front of a frenetic home crowd.
They nearly ended what’s now a 10-year playoff drought, and on Thursday they officially extended the man who oversaw the midseason turnaround that secured Charlotte its best record since the 2015-16 campaign.
The Hornets announced that they’ve signed head coach Charles Lee to an extension. The terms of that deal have not yet been disclosed; however, the franchise’s commitment to Lee is clear as they hope to build on a momentous winter and spring.
OFFICIAL: We have signed Head Coach Charles Lee to a contract extension.
