Toward the end of the second quarter, the fan's letter to Santa was read at the arena. In it, he asked for a PS5. In the video shared online, the team's mascot can be seen handing over a bag containing the gift. 

The post made its rounds on social media Tuesday, and the Hornets issued an apology. 

"We have reached out to the family and are committed to not only making it right but to exceeding expectations." 

The Hornets added that the fan will receive the video game console and a "VIP experience" at another game. 

"Our goal is and will remain to elevate the guest experience for every person that enters Spectrum Center and to show our fans how much we appreciate their relentless support."
