2024–25 Charlotte Hornets season

{{main|2024 NBA draft}}

The Hornets entered the draft (which was two days instead of one like it had been since the NBA draft was shortened down to two rounds back in 1989) with one first-round pick and one second-round pick.{{cite web|title=2024 NBA Draft Order: Picks 1-58|url=https://www.nba.com/news/2024-nba-draft-order|website=NBA.com|date=May 14, 2024|access-date=May 30, 2024}}{{cite web|last=Quinn|first=Sam|title=2024 NBA Draft order: Complete list of picks as Atlanta Hawks win No. 1 selection in Lottery|url=https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/2024-nba-draft-order-complete-list-of-picks-as-atlanta-hawks-win-no-1-selection-in-lottery/|work=CBS Sports|date=May 13, 2024|access-date=June 5, 2024}} On the first night of the draft, the Hornets would select the French power forward Tidjane Salaün from the Cholet Basket in the recently rebranded LNB Élite as the 6th pick. Then, on the second day of the draft, the Hornets would select point guard KJ Simpson from the University of Colorado.
