“Which NBA Teams Have Suffered the Most Heartbreaking Playoff Droughts?”
Longest Active Series Win Droughts
T-1. Charlotte Hornets: 21 (Last Series Win 2003-04)
The Hornets have had first-round exits in their last three playoff appearances. The last time Charlotte won a playoff series, the franchise left for New Orleans for the following season (and rattled off two more consecutive playoff appearances). That year, 2001-02, the Charlotte Hornets clinched their third consecutive playoff berth, this time as the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference. They beat the Orlando Magic in four games (back when the first round of the NBA playoffs was a five-game series) before losing to the New Jersey Nets in five games.
