The Charlotte Hornets

The Charlotte Hornets are the least valuable NBA team, according to Forbes. The magazine estimates the Hornets are worth $1.05 billion – less than half the league average.

The team’s lease at FedEx Forum expires in 2025, and it is not clear if the team will be able to find a new home that is as lucrative as its current one.

The Grizzlies are not alone among NBA teams that are struggling financially. The Sacramento Kings and the New Orleans Pelicans are also near the bottom of the league in terms of value.
