EAST LANSING – Miles Bridges is turning pro.
The Michigan State basketball star announced on Twitter on Wednesday that he will bypass his final two seasons in college to enter the 2018 NBA draft. Bridges said he plans to sign with Klutch Sports and agent Rich Paul, who also represents LeBron James.
“God couldn’t have placed me in a better place for these last two years,” Bridges wrote. “I wanna thank Coach Izzo and the rest of the coaching staff for giving a skinny kid from Flint a chance to play at such a legendary program. I would like to thank the academic support for helping me out everyday.
