The Charlotte Hornets have reportedly come to terms with free-agent forward Miles Bridges. Per multiple reports, Bridges plans to sign a three-year, $75 million deal to stay with the Hornets.

In 2023-24, Bridges averaged 21 points, 7.3 rebounds and 4.3 assists over 69 games with Charlotte.

Bridges missed the entire 2022-23 season and was suspended for the first 10 games of last season as a result of a domestic violence case from June 2022. Bridges was accused of assaulting the mother of his children in front of them in Los Angeles.

The Hornets, who won just 21 games last season, enter the 2024-25 season under new coach Charles Lee.
