Until something drastic happens, Miles Bridges will enter the 2025-26 regular season as the Charlotte Hornets' starting power forward. He shouldn't be too confident about holding onto that position if he can't improve his 3-point shooting, though.
He finished last season sinking a career-low 31.3 percent of his attempts from downtown. Some might defend Bridges by saying that he has the potential to be passable as a long-range sniper, as evidenced by his 40.0-percent shooting from long range in the 2021-22 season. However, the fact that his career efficiency is 34.0 percent is definitely a cause for concern.
