Question: The 1993–94 NBA season was the 6th season for the Charlotte Hornets in which organization, the team would soon struggle as Larry Johnson injured his back?
Context: Lawrence Demetric Johnson (born March 14, 1969) is an American retired basketball player who spent his professional career in the National Basketball Association (NBA) with the Charlotte Hornets and New York Knicks.  He played the power forward position due to his strength. The Charlotte Hornets are a professional basketball club based in Charlotte, North Carolina.  They are members of the National Basketball Association (NBA), playing in the Southeast Division of the Eastern Conference.  The original Charlotte Hornets franchise played in Charlotte from 1988–2002 before relocating to New Orleans, Louisiana and becoming the New Orleans Hornets.  A new franchise, the "Charlotte Bobcats", began play in the 2004–05 season.  The team played for ten seasons as the Bobcats before adopting the Hornets name for the 2014–15 season.  The Hornets name was left available after the New Orleans Hornets became the New Orleans Pelicans.  As part of a deal between the Bobcats, Hornets and NBA, the renamed Hornets reclaimed the original Hornets' history and records from 1988 to 2002, while all of the Hornets' records from 2002 to 2013 remained with the Pelicans.  As a result, the Hornets are now reckoned as having suspended operations after the 2001–02 season before returning as the Bobcats in 2004; This has allowed all of Charlotte's NBA history to be recognized under one single franchise. The 1993–94 NBA season was the Nets' 27th season in the National Basketball Association, and 18th season in East Rutherford, New Jersey.  During the offseason, the Nets signed free agents Kevin Edwards and Armen Gilliam, while acquiring Benoit Benjamin from the Los Angeles Lakers.  Without Dražen Petrović, who died in an automobile accident during the offseason; Derrick Coleman and Kenny Anderson would both step it up, having All-Star seasons being selected for the 1994 NBA All-Star Game.  The Nets got off to a rough start losing 10 of their first 14 games, as they later on traded Rumeal Robinson to the Charlotte Hornets for Johnny Newman.  However, the Nets would win 8 of their final 11 games finishing third in the Atlantic Division with a 45–37 record. The 2014–15 Charlotte Hornets season was the franchise's 25th season in the National Basketball Association (NBA).  This was the team's first year as the Charlotte Hornets since 2002.  The team had been known as the Charlotte Bobcats since its revival in 2004.  However, when the team formally changed its name to the Hornets on May 20, 2014; they also reclaimed the history and records of the original Charlotte Hornets franchise from the 1988–89 NBA season through the 2001–02 NBA season.  The New Orleans Pelicans retained the remaining history that exists under the New Orleans(/Oklahoma City) Hornets name from the 2002–03 NBA season through the 2012–13 NBA season.  The team was led by head coach Steve Clifford and assistant coaches Patrick Ewing, Bob Beyer, Stephen Silas, Bob Weiss, and Mark Price. The 1992–93 NBA season was the fifth season for the Charlotte Hornets in the National Basketball Association.  In the 1992 NBA draft, the Hornets selected center Alonzo Mourning out of Georgetown with the second overall pick.  With the addition of Mourning, along with second-year star Larry Johnson and Muggsy Bogues, the Hornets struggled around .500 for most of the season, but won 9 of their final 12 games finishing their season third in the Central Division with a 44–38 record, and qualified for their first ever playoff appearance.  The team became the first of the four expansion franchises of the late 1980s to win a playoff series, when Mourning sunk a 20 ft jumper at the buzzer in Game 4 of the first round playoff series against the 4th-seeded Boston Celtics.  However, in the semifinals, the Hornets were eliminated by the New York Knicks in five games. The 1994–95 NBA season was the 7th season for the Charlotte Hornets in the National Basketball Association.  During the offseason, the Hornets signed unrestricted free agent Robert Parish, who won championships with the Boston Celtics in the 1980s.  After falling one game short of the playoffs the previous season, the Hornets enjoyed their first 50-win season as they finished second in the Central Division with a solid 50–32 record, and qualified for their second Playoff appearance.  Alonzo Mourning and Larry Johnson were both selected for the 1995 NBA All-Star Game.  In the first round of the playoffs, they faced the 5th-seeded Chicago Bulls, but were eliminated three games to one in the best-of-five series, losing by just one point in an 85–84 loss in Game 4.  The Hornets led the NBA in attendance for the sixth time in seven seasons.  Following the season, Mourning was traded to the Miami Heat after three seasons with the franchise, Hersey Hawkins was traded to the Seattle SuperSonics, and Kenny Gattison left in the 1995 NBA Expansion Draft. The 1993–94 NBA season was the 6th season for the Charlotte Hornets in the National Basketball Association.  During the offseason, the Hornets acquired Hersey Hawkins from the Philadelphia 76ers, and Eddie Johnson from the Seattle SuperSonics.  Coming off their first playoff appearance, the Hornets played around .500 for the first half of the season as Johnny Newman was traded to the New Jersey Nets for Rumeal Robinson.  However, the team would soon struggle as Larry Johnson injured his back, and second-year star Alonzo Mourning was out with a torn calf muscle and sprained ankle.  Without their star players, the Hornets lost 16 of 17 games midway through the season.  With the return of Johnson and Mourning, they won 18 of their final 26 games, and finished the season fifth in the Central Division with a 41–41 record.  However, it was not enough as they narrowly missed out on a second straight playoff appearance. The original Charlotte Hornets of the National Basketball Association (NBA) were established in 1988 as an expansion team, based in Charlotte, North Carolina.  The team's roster was filled with unprotected players at the 1988 NBA Expansion Draft, and five days later the Hornets made their first picks out of college players at the 1988 NBA draft.  The Hornets remained in Charlotte for 14 seasons before relocating to New Orleans in 2002.  Two years after the Hornets' departure, the Charlotte Bobcats were established in 2004.  The Bobcats first participated in the 2004 NBA draft, two days after their expansion draft was held.  The franchise's name was changed back to the Hornets at the conclusion of the 2013–14 season, one year after the team in Louisiana renamed itself the New Orleans Pelicans.  The history and records of the original Charlotte Hornets were conveyed to the newly named Charlotte Hornets. The 1993–94 NBA season was the 48th season for the Boston Celtics in the National Basketball Association.  This season marked the first since 1978–79 that the Celtics failed to qualify for the NBA Playoffs (a streak of 14 seasons), finishing fifth in the Atlantic Division with a 32–50 record.  Tragedy struck the team prior to the season when star forward and team captain Reggie Lewis died of cardiac arrest during practice.  The absence of Lewis, and the retirements over the previous two seasons of Larry Bird and Kevin McHale contributed to the poor season.  The Celtics had a 7-game winning streak in January, but also had a winless month in February where they suffered a 13-game losing streak.  Rookie Dino Radja was named to the All-Rookie Second Team.  Following the season, longtime Celtics center Robert Parish signed as an unrestricted free agent with the Charlotte Hornets, and Kevin Gamble signed with the Miami Heat. The 1991–92 NBA season was the Charlotte Hornets' fourth season in the National Basketball Association.  With the top overall pick in the 1991 NBA draft, the Hornets selected UNLV star Larry Johnson.  Under new head coach Allan Bristow, the Hornets would get off to a slow start losing 8 of their first 9 games.  At midseason, Rex Chapman was traded to the Washington Bullets as the Hornets would get stronger winning 9 of 13 games in February, on their way to finishing sixth in the Central Division with a record of 31 wins and 51 losses, a five-game improvement over the previous season.  Johnson averaged 19.2 points and 11.0 rebounds per game, as he went on to win the 1992 NBA Rookie of the Year Award.  Second-year star Kendall Gill led the team in scoring with 20.5 points per game.  The Hornets led the NBA in attendance for the third time in four seasons.
