1996–97 Charlotte Hornets season
The 1996–97 Charlotte Hornets season was Charlotte's ninth season in the National Basketball Association.

Under new head coach Dave Cowens, the new-look Hornets played better than expected: Divac and Matt Geiger provided the best center combo in the league, Mason averaged a double-double and earned all-NBA third team honors, and Glen Rice had the finest season of his career, finishing third in the league in scoring with a career high of 26.8 points per game, and earning all-NBA second team honors. Rice also set several scoring records in the 1997 NBA All-Star Game, and was selected the game's MVP. At midseason, the team acquired Ricky Pierce from the Denver Nuggets
