According to a Yahoo! Sports report the New Orleans Hornets are changing their name. Like many other fans, I don’t care for the new name. The name change could come as early as the 2013-14 season. Check it out & let us know what you think…
According to ESPN:
The New Orleans Hornets are expected to become the New Orleans Pelicans. Yahoo! Sports, citing numerous sources, reports the team also considered Krewe and Brass as potential nicknames.
The Hornets have planned to change their name since New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson, who also owns the rights to the Pelicans nickname, bought the team in April.
Charlotte Bobcats owner Michael Jordan said in November he’d be interested in bringing the Hornets’ name back to Charlotte.
