Hornets' Miles Bridges Says He Thinks He Could Beat Michael Jordan 1-on-1

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges is really tempting fate.

Michael Jordan told French newspaper L'Equipe in 2015 he thought he could beat any member of the Hornets in a game of one-on-one. The comment made the rounds again as ESPN aired The Last Dance, and it caught the attention of Bridges.

The 22-year-old waded into the conversation again Thursday, saying, "I think I could beat him," per the Charlotte Observer's Rick Bonnell.

Anybody who has played at a local gym can attest to how aging ballers can be tricky because their craftiness is almost always inversely proportional to their physical skills.
