Miles Bridges is about to draw max (or near max) contract offers. The Hornets could offer a five-year, $173 max contract but are reportedly hesitant to do so. Other teams could offer four years, $131 million.
Charlotte ownership reportedly has concerns about going into the luxury tax to give Bridges that much money.
Gordon Hayward will make $30.1 million next season (and $31.5 million the following season).
It’s not hard to connect the dots to a Hayward trade, but ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported on air that the Hornets are willing to attach one of their first-round picks — No.
