The Charlotte Hornets introduced Kenny Atkinson as their new head coach on June 10 giving him a 4 year deal.
Atkinson will take over for James Borrego, who was fired in April after four years at the helm. Borrego made the play-in tournament the past two seasons, but never reached the playoffs with the Hornets.
