Villanova freshman forward Mikal Bridges is indiscriminate when it comes to his taste in music.
“Music? I got a whole lot, it’s just a real mix of everything, you know?” Bridges said following a practice last week. “[I got] Future, and still got Justin Bieber and all that.”
“A real mix of everything” just so happens to also sum up Bridges’ game. The 6’7”, 191-pound swingman has burst onto the scene in his first season on the court for the Wildcats, acting as the team’s personal Swiss Army knife. Bridges can defend almost any opposing player, and head coach Jay Wright has not hesitated to experiment with his new toy on the defensive end of the floor.
