CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Charlotte Hornets have fired head coach James Borrego, according to two sources with direct knowledge of the situation.
The Hornets later publicly confirmed the news.
Borrego was 138-163 in four seasons with the Hornets and led them to the NBA’s play-in tournament the past two years as the No. 10 seed. They were blown out in both play-in games, however, and never made the playoffs in Borrego’s four seasons.
