Mikal Bridges continues to bridge the Kevin Durant era to a new one in Brooklyn with an eerily familiar play.
Bridges made his best Durant impression Sunday night in leading the Nets 102-86 rout of the Charlotte Hornets in front of a soldout Barclays Center crowd.
Bridges dropped a career-high 19 points in the opening quarter on a perfect 9 for 9 shooting from the floor.
