❓ FAQ
Can Charlotte Hornets make the playoffs?
Charlotte Hornets cannot clinch on their own even by winning out; they need help.
How is the magic number computed?
Assume every rival wins all remaining games; the magic number is the minimum wins that still guarantee a spot. Ties count against the team, so it can show later than official.
Does winning the division get you in?
No. Since 2016 division standings have no bearing on seeding. Only conference win percentage counts.
