## Caption

In honor of Valentine’s Day, never forget when the Oklahoma City Hornets wore their special edition red jerseys for V-Day in 2007 against the Kings, marking the first time in franchise history that the Hornets wore a color other than teal, purple, gold, and white. ⁣
⁣
⇨ Following destruction from Hurricane Katrina, the New Orleans Hornets were forced to temporarily locate to Oklahoma City for the entirety of the 2005-06 and 2006-07 seasons.

⇨ Hornets forward Desmond Mason led all scorers with 18.

⇨ Tyson Chandler grabbed 15 boards in this game and averaged 12.4 for the season. 

⇨ Pelicans legend John Salmons played for the Kings during 2006-07 and had a 4-point outing in this game.

⇨ The Hornets later auctioned off all 15 special Valentine’s edition jerseys, raising more than $22,000 for the American Heart Association & Hornets charities.

⇨ Chris Paul’s jersey sold for $5,550, doubling the pricetag of autographed jerseys from Gilbert Arenas and Steve Nash.
