Across his last nine outings, Bridges has averaged 26.9 points, 8.0 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.3 blocks and 3.0 three-pointers in 34.0 minutes.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Good to go Monday vs. Golden State
Rotowire
Bridges (illness) is available for Monday's game against the Warriors.
Bridges popped up on Sunday's injury report due to an illness, but it isn't severe enough for him to be sidelined for Monday's contest. The sixth-year forward has averaged 21.1 points, 8.1 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 0.9 steals over 32.5 minutes per game since the beginning of February.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Under the weather
Rotowire
Bridges (illness) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Warriors.
Bridges appears to be under the weather, and while the NBA injury report has him listed as probable, the Hornets have his status as questionable. Tidjane Salaun and DaQuan Jeffries would stand to see a significant increase in playing time should Bridges not be cleared to play Monday. Bridges has averaged 20.8 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.2 steals over 32.3 minutes per game over his last 10 outings.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Double-doubles in loss
Rotowire
Bridges registered 20 points (9-24 FG, 2-8 3Pt), 12 rebounds, six assists and one block across 40 minutes during Thursday's 103-96 loss to the Mavericks.
It was the ninth double-double of the year for Bridges, who did have a team-high four turnovers and didn't shoot the ball particularly well Thursday. The star forward is taking on heavy usage for the injury-riddled Hornets at the moment, and he's been productive with averages of 20.0 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.4 steals, 0.9 blocks and 2.6 three-pointers in 31.5 minutes over his last eight games. However, Bridges is shooting just 38.1 percent from the floor during this span, and open looks could remain hard to come by if LaMelo Ball (ankle) continues to get maintenance days to close out the season.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Erupts for season-high 36
Rotowire
Bridges accumulated 36 points (12-23 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 13 rebounds, seven assists, one block and three steals across 34 minutes during Thursday's 129-115 loss to the Nuggets.
It was a season-best scoring effort for Bridges as well as his eighth double-double of the campaign, but he didn't get quite enough help to secure the Hornets' second straight road win. The 26-year-old forward stumbled into the All-Star break, managing just 26 points combined while shooting 17.0 percent from the floor over the last two contests before the pause, but the rest seems to have served Bridges well. In two games since play resumed, he's averaged 32.5 points, 9.5 boards, 5.0 threes, 4.0 steals, 3.5 assists and 1.0 blocks.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Scores team-high 29 points
Rotowire
Bridges finished Wednesday's 100-97 win over the Lakers with 29 points (9-22 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds, one block and five steals across 33 minutes.
LaMelo Ball had an impressive performance on both ends of the court for the Hornets. Still, Bridges was the one who carried the team offensively, even if his shooting percentage wasn't particularly efficient. The veteran will continue to operate as the Hornets' No. 2 option on offense going forward, but there's no question he's been productive in recent weeks and has reached the 25-point plateau in three of his last five appearances.

For the first time since November, Bridges was held to single-digit points. Fantasy managers can chalk this up as an off night in a solid campaign for the forward. Across 37 regular-season appearances, Bridges holds averages of 19.5 points, 7.7 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.0 three-pointers in 32.0 minutes.
