According to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype.com, the Pistons might be interested in signing forward Miles Bridges this summer. After sitting out the 2022-23 campaign because of legal troubles, the 26-year-old amassed a career-high 21.0 points and 7.3 rebounds in 69 games with the Hornets this season. Of course, there will be more than a handful of teams expected to make an offer. However, Detroit will have the cap space during the offseason, although the interest could fade depending on who takes over as the president of basketball operations.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges (wrist) will be back on the court in Friday's matchup against Orlando. He missed Wednesday's clash with Portland due to a wrist contusion but is good to go on Friday, with the team upgrading Bridges from probable to available. Bridges has had a good comeback campaign in the Association, averaging 21.4 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in 37.8 minutes. However, he's struggled against the Magic, shooting only 41.7 percent from the field to post 15.3 points across three meetings.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges (wrist) is listed as probable for Friday's game versus the Orlando Magic. He was unable to play in Wednesday's contest against the Portland Trail Blazers because of a right wrist contusion but is trending in the right direction for his matchup with the Magic. Bridges has been asked to play heavy minutes recently, totaling 43 minutes in two straight games before his injury. He is also coming off two great performances, including his game against the Boston Celtics, where he flirted with a triple-double (26 points, 11 rebounds, and eight assists). Final confirmation about his status will come on Friday before tip-off.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges (wrist) has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful for Wednesday's contest versus the Portland Trail Blazers. A right wrist contusion leaves Bridges unlikely to play against Portland, which would clear up a spot in Charlotte's starting lineup at power forward for the likes of Davis Bertans and Aleksej Pokusevski. Neither of the two are anything more than hit-or-miss fantasy streamers on Wednesday, but the Blazers do rank 23rd in the NBA in opponent rebounding percentage (48.9%). Managers hope to get Bridges back during the fantasy finals on Friday against the Orlando Magic, as the 26-year-old playmaking forward is averaging 22.5 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 2.1 threes in 39.6 minutes across his last 13 appearances.

Charlotte Hornets forwards Miles Bridges (wrist) and Brandon Miller (wrist) are both questionable for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The injury-plagued 18-57 Hornets could be in serious trouble in this one, as their entire starting lineup could be watching from the sidelines. Bridges has a right wrist contusion, and Miller is dealing with a sprained wrist. It's anyone's guess who would benefit most from a fantasy perspective if one or both of the two forwards are out, but Davis Bertans and Aleksej Pokusevski would likely handle heavy minutes in the frontcourt and attract the attention of some fantasy managers as streamers in a soft matchup against the 19-58 Blazers. It's difficult to cast judgements on Charlotte's rotation at this time with such a deep injury report, though.

The Charlotte Hornets have upgraded forward Miles Bridges (elbow) from probable to available for Wednesday's contest versus the Chicago Bulls. A left elbow contusion clouded Bridges' availability a bit on Wednesday, but Charlotte has officially given him the green light to suit up, and he hasn't sat out since Dec. 18. The 25-year-old playmaking forward is playing top-50 ball in nine-category fantasy leagues this year, averaging 20.9 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.1 assists 2.3 threes, and 1.1 steals in 34 games for the Hornets. Although Wednesday's matchup carries the lowest implied point total (214.5) of the nine-game slate, Bridges belongs in all season-long lineups,.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges (elbow) is considered probable for a game against Chicago on Wednesday. The 25-year-old is dealing with a left elbow contusion, but the injury isn't expected to keep Bridges out of action. Bridges has put together a very strong stretch of games recently and will go for an eighth consecutive game with 20-plus points on Wednesday. He's also logged three double-doubles during his recent scoring surge.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges will become a free agent following the 2023-24 NBA season and is expected to be a prominent name in trade talks until the Feb. 8 deadline. Bridges missed all of last season and served a 10-game suspension to start this year due to a domestic-violence case, but he is currently among the 10 or more players on the Phoenix Suns' radar. If traded, Bridges would lose his bird rights, meaning teams cannot go over the salary cap to pay him, and he can also veto any trade. The Suns don't have the cap space to retain him in the offseason, but Bridges could provide a significant boost for their title run this season. He is currently averaging 20.8 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 3.2 assists in 36 minutes per game.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges was denied entry into Canada due to his current legal situation. The Hornets are going through the process of trying to get that decision reversed ahead of Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Bridges' availability on the court to begin with is a controversial topic among NBA fans, after the 25-year-old missed all of 2022-23 and 2023-24's first 10 games due to a 2022 domestic violence case. Bridges also has a court date scheduled on Feb. 20 for the alleged violation of a protection order related to the incident. Bridges is playing top-50 fantasy ball, though, averaging 19.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.4 steals in 36.1 minutes across 14 games. Charlotte's rotation might be a mess on Monday, but Brandon Miller could get plenty of DFS attention and JT Thor would likely handle more playing time if Bridges can't get the go-ahead.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges (suspension) is eligible to return to the team's active roster for Friday's game versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Bridges has fulfilled his 30-game suspension due to assault charges from the summer of 2022, which caused him to ultimately miss the entire 2022-23 season and the first 10 games of 2023-24. The Hornets are "comfortable with Miles returning to play", and he is set to be reinstated for Friday's In-Season Tournament matchup. Bridges isn't completely out of the woods yet, however, as he was issued a criminal summons on Oct. 11 before surrendering two days later. Charlotte references these "recent allegations" in their statement, but a "significant role", per head coach Steve Clifford, is on tap for the 25-year-old as the legal process plays out. Bridges was a fourth-round fantasy asset when we last saw him in 2021-22, averaging 20.2 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 0.8 blocks in 35.5 minutes over 80 games.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges is in the headlines for all the wrong reasons again, as it's been revealed there has been an arrest warrant issued for him. It's related to his prior domestic violence incident and has been issued for a violation of a protective order. The warrant has been out since January, but deputies have been unable to serve it. On Wednesday, a criminal summons was also issued for Bridges. After missing the entire 2022-23 NBA campaign, Bridges was set to return to the league this season, but this doesn't look great on him and casts a shadow of doubt on his future.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges was charged with three felony charges on Tuesday. The 24-year-old has decided to plead not guilty to all three charges on Wednesday. He was initially arrested in Los Angeles on June 29th after getting into an altercation with his child's mother. Bridges is being charged with domestic violence and child abuse after allegedly assaulting his girlfriend in front of his children. Both the NBA and the Hornets organization are conducting their own investigations. If Bridges is found guilty, the NBA can suspend him for the foreseeable future. Otherwise, the NBA can't suspend Bridges, assuming he is found not guilty. Regardless, it's tough to imagine Bridges suiting up on an NBA court anytime soon.

Free-agent forward Miles Bridges has been formally charged with felony domestic violence and child abuse. This comes from an alleged assault that occurred last month in Los Angeles. The 24-year-old reportedly assaulted his girlfriend in front of the couple's two children. He faces one felony count of injuring a child's parent and two felony counts of child abuse. At this point, it doesn't sound like Bridges is going to take an NBA court anytime soon. His arraignment is set for Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court.

The Charlotte Hornets reportedly didn't pull their offer on Miles Bridges before the July 13 deadline. That means, technically the offer is still on the table for Bridges. Right now, his future is unclear with an upcoming court date in Los Angeles on Wednesday. This court date is in regards to his domestic abuse case. There should be more information on Bridges in the near future. It's tough to imagine Bridges playing for Charlotte again, but we'll wait and see what happens later in the week.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges has a court date scheduled for July 20. Bridges, who was arrested in late June on felony domestic violence charges, is coming off a fantastic season, where he averaged a career-high 20.2 points. The Hornets did tender him an $8 million qualifying offer, so the team does have control. However, his future with the team could be decided by what transpires during his court appearance. Until then, it's unlikely he'll receive interest from clubs throughout the league, so the front office has time to figure things out.

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges has surprisingly not been offered the max contract. Possibly, the Hornets don't believe any other organization will offer Bridges the max in free agency. Both the Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers have been rumored to be interested in Bridges. He could be a huge lift to both of those organizations, but we'll see what happens. A move to another organization could skyrocket Bridges' fantasy value, but it depends on where he lands. The Hornets certainly want to keep Bridges, but apparently believe he is not worth a max deal.

Upcoming free agent forward Miles Bridges is anticipated to require a max offer heading into October, league executives believe. However, while Charlotte has the ability to match any offer heading his way, there are rumors that the franchise may be hesitant to do so. The 24-year-old was an explosive option on the offensive end for the Hornets last season, averaging 20.2 points, considerably more than the previous year. Bridges has All-Star potential, so regardless of where he signs over the summer, fantasy managers should keep him on the radar

Forward Miles Bridges will be getting plenty of attention during free agency over the summer, with the Portland Trail Blazers rumored to be the latest team looking to acquire his services. The 24-year-old easily had the best season of his career in 2021-22, finishing with averages of 20.2 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 3.8 assists. However, because he'll be a restricted free agent, the Hornets will have a chance to match any offers heading his way, which is expected given how well he played last year. Nonetheless, regardless of where he is playing this season, he'll continue to see plenty of interest from the fantasy community, and rightfully so.

Charlotte Hornets small forward Miles Bridges was ejected in the middle of the fourth quarter of Wednesday's play-in game against the Atlanta Hawks. With about six minutes to go in the game, Bridges blocked a layup attempt from Hawks small forward De'Andre Hunter. Bridges was whistled for goaltending on the play and he promptly went on to argue with the official, who quickly gave him a pair of technical fouls, leading to his ejection. The 24-year-old logged 30 minutes in the game before the ejection. He shot 5-for-11 from the field and racked up 12 points, four rebounds and four assists. He failed to connect on any of his four three-point attempts.

Charlotte Hornets small forward Miles Bridges had a breakout year across the board in 2021-22. He averaged 20.2 points and 7.0 rebounds per game while shooting 49.1% from the field. Prior to this season, Bridges declined a four-year $60 million offer from the Hornets. Due to that development, there's speculation that Bridges could receive a massive long-term contract offer from the Hornets this coming summer. Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report suggested that the deal could be something like five years and $173 million. Bridges will be a restricted free agent this summer and the Hornets don't seem likely to let the 24-year-old walk.
