Miles Bridges News, Rumors, Updates - Charlotte Hornets

Scores 21 points in loss Bridges recorded 21 points (8-15 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and five assists across 32 minutes during Sunday's 120-113 loss to the Suns.

Impact Bridges was one of three players who reached the 20-point mark for the Hornets in this loss, with LaMelo Ball and Mark Williams being the other two. Bridges has reached the 20-point mark in four of his last five games, and he's been one of the few bright spots for the Hornets from a fantasy perspective in what has been another subpar season for the franchise.

Reaches 20 points in balanced game Bridges ended with 21 points (8-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Tuesday's 115-104 victory over Phoenix.

Impact Bridges saw a balanced showing in Tuesday's contest, making an impact on both ends of the court while ending second among starters in rebounds and steals while ending as one of two Hornets with 20 or more points. Bridges has recorded 20 or more points in nine outings this season, doing so in six of his last 10 contests.

Balanced showing in defeat Bridges finished with 20 points (5-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-9 FT), nine rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 39 minutes during Friday's 98-94 loss to Detroit.

Impact Bridges did a little bit of everything for Charlotte in Friday's contest, leading all Hornets players in scoring and threes made while posting team-high-tying marks in rebounds, assists and steals over a team-high minute total. Bridges has posted at least nine rebounds in seven outings this season while recording his eighth game with 20 or more points.

Flirts with triple-double Monday Bridges recorded 31 points (13-32 FG, 2-13 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 12 rebounds and eight assists over 36 minutes during Monday's 115-108 overtime loss to the Bulls.

Impact The 26-year-old stuffed the stat sheet Monday, during which he was given the green light offensively with LaMelo Ball (ankle/wrist) and Brandon Miller (ankle) sidelined. Bridges was inefficient from beyond the arc while serving as the top option, though he nailed the game-tying three-pointer that sent the game into overtime, albeit in a losing effort. The sixth-year forward has now logged three double-doubles through 19 regular-season appearances, and he has also racked up seven games with 20-plus points thus far.

Full stat line as focal point Bridges logged 19 points (5-16 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 8-8 FT), 10 rebounds, six assists, two blocks and one steal in 38 minutes during Saturday's 106-94 loss to the Thunder.

Impact With top scoring options LaMelo Ball (wrist) and Brandon Miller (ankle) out Saturday, Bridges put together a full stat line for the Hornets, including a team-high 19 points and six assists despite Saturday's losing effort and poor shooting night from the field. It's also worth noting Bridges played a season-high 38 minutes in this one. Since returning from a knee injury, Bridges is averaging 19.1 points, 8.9 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.0 blocks and 1.4 three-pointers across his last seven games. The 26-year-old forward may not necessarily excel in one particular area from a fantasy perspective, as his minutes are down considerably from last season, but Bridges should continue producing across the board as one of Charlotte's featured playmakers going forward.

First double-double of season Bridges logged 22 points (8-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 14 rebounds, six assists, two blocks and one steal in 34 minutes during Thursday's 113-110 loss to the Wizards.

Impact Bridges delivered an impressive performance in this loss, ending as the Hornets' second-best scorer but also putting up excellent numbers in peripheral categories. Bridges notched his first double-double of the season in this loss, and he also scored at least 20 points for the third time over his last five appearances. During that stretch, Bridges is averaging 20.2 points, 8.6 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game.

Three-point shooting woes continue Bridges provided 24 points (9-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Monday's 114-101 loss to the Rockets.

Impact Bridges had a solid performance Monday and was one of the Hornets' top producers, as he stepped into the role of being the No. 2 option due to the absence of Brandon Miller (ankle). However, and as good as his stat line was, Bridges continues to struggle with his three-point shot. Over his last five appearances, Bridges is averaging 18.6 points per game while shooting just 16.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Struggles from deep Bridges ended Thursday's 123-114 loss to the Wizards with 16 points (7-16 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds and three assists in 32 minutes.

Impact Bridges played in this third straight game Thursday after missing an extended period due to a knee injury. The 26-year-old forward has had his playing time increase in each of his last three outings, indicating that he is working his way back toward a full workload. While Bridges is unlikely to match his season average of 37.4 minutes per contest from 2023-24, fantasy managers can expect him to play at least 30 minutes a night moving forward.

Drops team-high 24 in loss Bridges ended Monday's 121-108 loss to Philadelphia with 24 points (10-19 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds and four assists in 28 minutes.

Impact The 26-year-old forward led the Hornets in scoring in his second game back from a knee injury, producing his best points total since he popped for 27 against the Pistons on Nov. 6. Charlotte's starting five remains a revolving door -- LaMelo Ball returned from a calf injury Monday, only for Brandon Miller to leave in the fourth quarter with a sprained ankle. As long as Bridges can stay on the court though, he should be a centerpiece of the team's offense.

DECEMBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Serviceable performance in return Bridges ended Friday's 109-95 loss to the Bulls with 14 points (5-16 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and one block in 25 minutes.

Impact Bridges was eased back into action Friday, logging 25 minutes, during which time he fell just short of a double-double. His shooting left a lot to be desired, going just 5-of-16 from the field. However, given this was his first game since re-injuring his knee, it is certainly a good sign for his immediate playing future. Look for Bridges to play a little more when the Hornets host the 76ers on Monday.

His next opportunity to suit up will come Tuesday versus the 76ers. In his absence, rookie Tidjane Salaun figures to continue starting at power forward.
