NBA Rumors: Hornets 'Would Like to Have' Miles Bridges on Roster After Suspension

The Charlotte Hornets are reportedly hoping to bring back free-agent forward Miles Bridges for next season.

Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo of ESPN reported the Hornets front office "would like" Bridges back despite him pleading no contest to a domestic violence charge in November. The NBA suspended Bridges for 30 games, giving him credit for 20 during the 2022-23 season. He will be suspended for the first 10 games of next season.

Before the domestic violence charge, Bridges was likely to get a long-term deal in free agency. The 2018 first-round pick averaged 20.
