Charlotte Hornets

Charlotte Hornets

The Charlotte Hornets are an American professional basketball team based in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Hornets compete in the National Basketball Association (NBA), as a member club of the league's Eastern Conference Southeast Division. The team is largely owned by former NBA player Michael Jordan, who acquired controlling interest in the team in 2010. The Hornets play their home games at the Spectrum Center in Uptown Charlotte.

The Charlotte Hornets franchise was established in 1988 as an expansion team owned by George Shinn. In 2002, Shinn relinquished his original franchise and acquired a new franchise in New Orleans. Although Shinn was controversially permitted to relocate his basketball organization to that city, an agreement was eventually reached in which Charlotte was permitted to retain the history and records of the team spanning from 1988 to 2002. After suspending operations for two seasons the Charlotte franchise, rebranded at the time as the Charlotte Bobcats, was reactivated under new ownership in the 2004–05 NBA season. In 2013, the Bobcats announced that they would change their name to the Charlotte Hornets once again for the 2014–15 season.

Hornets City Jersey

The Hornets city Jersey for 2020-21 NBA season pay homage to North Carolina’s gold rush, U.S. Branch Mint, ‘Buzz City’. It celebrates Charlotte’s history as the home of the first U.S. Branch Mint, the Carolina Gold Rush of the early 1800s. It also includes mint with gold and granite accents. Granite is the official state rock of North Carolina.

“The City Edition uniform is designed to celebrate an aspect of local pride, and we are pleased to pay homage to Charlotte’s reputation as a beacon of hope dating back more than two centuries,” Hornets President & Vice Chairman Fred Whitfield said. “From the Carolina Gold Rush, to the opening of the first U.S. Branch Mint, and on to today as the country’s second-largest banking center, our city has a long history of influence and being at the forefront of greatness. We are proud to acknowledge this legacy with a uniform that is as unique as our community and remains in line with our ethos of being vibrant and trendsetting.”

The 2020-2021 Hornets city Jersey also pays respect to the “Buzz City” with a moniker on the chest which includes gold and granite pinstripes on the jersey and the shorts are ridged like the edge of a coin.
