Miles Bridges Gets Traded to Suns
Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges was traded to the Phoenix Suns on Sunday, according to Shams Charania. The Hornets are sending Bridges and a 2029 first-round pick, and a 2027 second-round pick to the Suns for Grayson Allen, Royce O'Neale, and a 2033 first-round pick. The Hornets have now traded two of their biggest pieces in less than a week. Bridges has been a reliable contributor for the Hornets since joining the team in 2018. This past season, Bridges averaged 17.1 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 3.2 assists across 31.0 minutes per game in 77 contests. He's entering the final year of his contract, which is likely why the Hornets didn't get a huge return on him. The expectation is that Bridges will move into the starting five, which will limit the overall value of Dillon Brooks. This isn't a terrible landing spot for Bridges, but the Suns do have Devin Booker and Jalen Green as their primary scoring options. Bridges might see a slight downturn in value with the move to Phoenix.
