While LaMelo Ball made his first All-Star team this year, Miles Bridges took the biggest jump. Before this season, the Charlotte Hornets did not have a long-term running mate to pair alongside Ball. But thanks to Bridges’ massive leap, they seem to have found that (as long as they tackle restricted free agency correctly).
Bridges made the impressive leap to the 20 points per game club this year, just sneaking over the line at 20.2. He also put up 7.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 0.9 steals a night, all improvements from his junior season.
