Hornets forward Miles Bridges will reportedly avoid jail time after he pleaded no contest to a felony domestic violence charge, according to ESPN’s Baxter Holmes.
Bridges, though, will face three years of probation as part of the agreement with prosecutors. He accepted the punishment while refraining from admitting guilt in the case, per Holmes.
The update on Bridges’s punishment comes after the restricted free agent was accused of assaulting his former girlfriend in front of their two children in May. In June, Los Angeles police arrested Bridges on but he was released on $130,000 bond.
