The Hornets started off the 2006-07 season strong by winning their first four games. Injuries to David West, Peja Stojakovic, Chris Paul, Bobby Jackson and Desmond Mason handicapped the team. They endured most of their losses in December, January and March when many of these players were sidelined. In December the Hornets signed free agent Devin Brown to fill in for injured players. He proved to be a valuable asset to the team averaging 11.6 points per game. Overall, injuries of key players led to the Hornets' star-crossed season.

"Just like that, back to reality, and reality for the Hornets is that significant help likely won't arrive via the NBA draft in June. If a return to the playoffs for the Hornets is going to coincide with their full-time return to New Orleans after a two-year absence, it's going to happen because the current players on the roster got healthier, better and hungrier."
