The Charlotte Hornets are picking up the team option on coach James Borrego's contract for next season, according to multiple reports.

Borrego is 95-124 in three seasons with the Hornets, including a 33-39 mark this season. The Hornets qualified for the play-in tournament as the 10th seed in the Eastern Conference but were eliminated after being routed 144-117 by the Indiana Pacers.

Several players called the performance embarrassing.

The Hornets were in fourth place in April, but injuries and coronavirus-related issues sidelined key players, including Gordon Hayward, LaMelo Ball, Miles Bridges, Devonte' Graham and Malik Monk, and the team began to slide. Charlotte finished the season losing its last six games.

Borrego received an endorsement after the season from general manager Mitch Kupchak, who said he believes "the coach did a great job."
