The skit came in a game break during the second quarter of Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers at Spectrum Center. The boy joined Charlotte's mascot, Hugo, who was dressed as Santa, on the court. In-game host Ohavia Phillips read a letter to Santa that included a request for a PS5 for Christmas as a Hornets cheerleader walked up to Hugo and gave him a gift bag. The mascot then pulled a PS5 out of the bag and gave it to the surprised boy.
However, the Hornets took the PS5 from the fan after the cameras turned off and a staffer replaced it with a jersey.
Genuinely, how on earth did that get signed off?
The boy was confused and disappointed, and cheerleaders, dancers and other team staff members standing nearby were also shocked he could not keep the item, according to Phillips.
Charlotte lost to Philadelphia 121-108 Monday night, falling to 7-19 on the season.

Some PR flake decided they wanted a PS5 more than they wanted to keep working for the Hornets.
