The first Mikal Game of the young season

Mikal Bridges had one of those games on Friday night.

The Phoenix Suns beat the New Orleans Pelicans 124-111 on ESPN and were led in scoring not by Devin Booker, Deandre Ayton, or Chris Paul. They were led by the 27 points from Bridges on elite shooting — 7-8 2P, 3-5 3P, 4-4 FT — but he wasn’t just scoring.

He added in four assists — including some real highlights — to only one turnover, and he absolutely filled up the sheet on the defensive end: 1 steal and 3 blocks.
