Can an NBA basketball team get its start in a small town in the middle of one of the biggest NCAA Basketball hubs in the United States? According to the New Orleans Hornets and fans that buy Hornets tickets, yes it can. The New Orleans Hornets began as the Charlotte Hornets as an expansion team of the NBA in 1988. The Hornets have experienced great success despite their relatively short history, and fans with Hornets basketball tickets have backed their team along the way. Interest in Hornets tickets began early, as such players as University of North Carolina graduate J.R. Reid gave fans with Hornets basketball tickets a hometown hero. The drafting of Larry Johnson, the NBA Rookie of the Year in 1991, and Alonzo Mourning in 1992 led to the availability of Hornets playoff tickets for the first time ever in 1993. Since the team's beginning in 1989, the Hornets have made Hornets playoff basketball tickets possible nine times. Following the quick success of the Hornets in Charlotte, the team moved to New Orleans in 2002 and into their new home, the New Orleans Arena. The Arena holds approximately 17,200 fans with New Orleans Hornets tickets, and the team rarely disappoints on its home floor. Fans that purchased Hornets tickets to the first eleven games in the New Orleans Arena witnessed victories by their Hornets. It is for reasons like this that fans continue to buy New Orleans Hornets tickets. Current head coach and former NBA player Byron Scott is attempting to bring an NBA championship to New Orleans and the fans that purchase Hornets tickets. To do this, Scott will draw upon his two NBA Finals appearances as coach of the New Jersey Nets, and his three NBA Championships as a player with the Los Angeles Lakers. Under leadership like this, holders of New Orleans Hornets tickets may not have to wait much longer for their first NBA Championship.
