Miles Bridges is a free agent this summer … just saying. If they’re going to let PWill walk … the past is a big red flag … real big … Suns are rumored to be in on him for a trade but trying to gauge the fallout. – 7:35 PM

Some extremely poor decision making from Miles Bridges on the offensive end so far tonight. A lot of ball pounding and bad shots – 7:35 PM

A source close to the situation described the Suns as feeling very confident they’d be able to get a deal for Miles Bridges across the finish line. Financially speaking, Bridges’ $7.9 million contract would be easy to match by sending Charlotte a combination of Nassir Little’s $6.3 million salary and a veteran minimum player like Chimezie Metu ($2.3 million), Yuta Watanabe ($2.3 million) or Bol Bol ($2.2 million). -via gophnx.com / January 26, 2024
