Lakers reportedly ‘monitoring the situation’ with Miles Bridges

It’s no secret the Los Angeles Lakers have been canvassing the rest of the NBA for trade offers for a while, and that they would love to acquire one or two more serviceable frontcourt players.

One player who may be available, but is in a unique situation, is Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges.

At age 24, 6-foot-6 and 225 pounds, Bridges can play either forward position and seems to be a rising star. Last season, he achieved career highs of 20.2 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 0.8 blocked shots a game, and he has perhaps shown signs of developing a reliable 3-point shot.
