2021-22 Hornets Player Preview: Miles Bridges
Photo by Jared C. Tilton/Getty Images Miles Bridges didn’t find his footing in the NBA right away. He came off the bench for most of his rookie season before being inserted into the starting lineup in the final couple months of the season. He played well in a limited role among a bunch of veterans like Kemba Walker, Jeremy Lamb, Marvin Williams, Nicolas Batum, and so on. There was an exodus of veterans following that season, That sped up the Bridges timeline, and he probably wasn’t ready for it. The box score stats looked okay, but he frequently got lost defensively and wasn’t efficient on offense.
