After receiving minimal interest on the free agent market, Miles Bridges accepted his qualifying offer from the Charlotte Hornets, making him an unrestricted free agent in the summer of 2024. After missing the entire 2022-23 NBA season due to legal issues, Bridges will head into the new season hoping to rebuild his value around the league.
Regardless of what happens in the coming months, Bridges will enter the 2024 free agency period expecting to receive a significant pay rise on the $7.9 million he’s set to earn this season. Whether the Hornets will be the team to sanction that pay rise will remain to be seen.
