Hornets' Miles Bridges: Probable for Thursday
Bridges is probable for Thursday's game against the Pistons due to left knee soreness.
Bridges missed three straight games earlier in November due to a right knee injury, but it's his left knee bothering him now. Regardless, he's expected to suit up Thursday. Over his last three appearances, Bridges has averaged 19.7 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.0 steals in 29.0 minutes per game.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Scores 21 in Tuesday's loss
Bridges racked up 21 points (8-14 FG, 5-9 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 116-115 loss to the Nets.
It was his biggest workload and best scoring effort in three games since returning to the lineup from a knee injury that cost him three contests, while the five made threes were a season high. Bridges is averaging 19.7 points, 6.0 boards, 4.3 assists, 4.0 threes and 1.0 steals since his return while shooting 50.0 percent from the floor and 50.0 percent (12-for-24) from beyond the arc.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Flirts with triple-double
Bridges closed Sunday's 128-114 loss to the Cavaliers with 19 points (7-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, one block and two steals in 27 minutes.
Bridges put together yet another strong all-around performance and dished out a season-best eight assists in the loss. He's logged 27 minutes in two appearances since returning from a knee injury, so the club is evidently still capping his minutes in an effort to ease him back into action. Bridges averaged 30.4 minutes in his first eight games of the campaign and should be expected to regularly reach that threshold once his restriction is lifted.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Will play Sunday
Bridges (knee) is listed as available for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.
Bridges was listed as questionable prior to being deemed available for Sunday's game, though it's unclear whether he will operate under a minutes restriction.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Game-time decision Sunday
Bridges (knee), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers, will warm up with the intention of playing, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
The club will monitor both LaMelo Ball (finger) and Bridges during warmups and decide if they will play closer to tipoff at 6:00 p.m. ET. If the 26-year-old forward is unable to give it a go, Tidjane Salaun and Moussa Diabate are candidates for increased roles. Bridges was able to play in Saturday's win over Milwaukee, during which he posted 19 points (7-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 27 minutes.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Iffy for Sunday
Bridges is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers due to right knee injury management.
Bridges made his return Saturday versus the Bucks following a three-game absence due to a knee injury and posted 19 points (7-15 FG), seven rebounds, three assists and a steal in 27 minutes. If he's sidelined for the second half of Charlotte's back-to-back set, Tidjane Salaun and Moussa Diabate would be candidates for increased roles.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Scores 19 points in return
Bridges (knee) tallied 19 points (7-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 27 minutes in Saturday's 115-114 win over Milwaukee.
Bridges returned Saturday from a three-game absence due to a bone bruise in his right knee. Though he operated with a slight cap on his minutes, he finished second on the Hornets in scoring behind LaMelo Ball (26). Given his recent return from injury, Bridges could be a candidate to sit out Sunday against the Cavaliers in the second leg of a back-to-back, or at least have his minutes monitored.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Good to go against Milwaukee
Bridges (knee) is available and in the starting five for Saturday's game versus the Bucks.
Bridges has been upgraded from questionable to available despite being expected to miss at least two weeks due to a right knee bone bruise. The 26-year-old forward will reclaim his starting spot from Taj Gibson against Milwaukee.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Upgraded to questionable vs. Bucks
Bridges (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bucks.
Bridges' status comes as a surprise, as he was originally scheduled to miss two weeks due to the bone bruise on his right knee, according to Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer. However, the 26-year-old's tag being upgraded to questionable suggests he is nearing a return to game action after missing the Hornets' last three matchups. Bridges will likely remain under a minutes restriction when he returns, and if he misses additional time, Josh Green, Grant Williams and Moussa Diabate will likely continue to see an uptick in playing time.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Out at least two weeks
The Hornets announced Thursday that Bridges will miss at least two weeks due to a bone bruise in his right knee, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Bridges hyperextended his knee in Wednesday's win over Detroit and was sent in for an MRI, which revealed the bone bruise. Given that the two-week timeline is merely a re-evaluation date, Bridges could require some ramp-up time thereafter before he's cleared for game action. In the 26-year-old forward's absence, Grant Williams (back) and Tidjane Salaun are candidates to take on increased minutes out of the frontcourt.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Won't play against Indiana
Bridges has been ruled out for Friday's game versus the Pacers due to a right knee hyperextension.
Bridges hyperextended his knee while contesting a Jaden Ivey layup Wednesday and will be forced to miss Friday's contest. In his absence, Grant Williams (back) and Tidjane Salaun are candidates to receive increased playing time. Bridges' next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Philadelphia.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Leads all scorers in victory
Bridges (knee) closed with 27 points (8-14 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 9-9 FT), seven rebounds and two assists over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 108-107 win over the Pistons.
Bridges finally found some rhythm on the offensive end, matching his season high with 27 points. It was a welcome sight after he had shot poorly in each of the four previous games, logging a grand total of just 37 points in that span. Bridges appeared to suffer a hyperextended knee late in the game but was able to return. However, it is something to keep an eye on moving forward, just in case it causes him to pop up on the injury report.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Does little vs. Boston
Bridges finished with six points (2-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and two steals over 31 minutes during Saturday's 113-103 loss to the Celtics.
It was Bridges' lowest scoring output of the regular season Saturday as he attempted just six shots from the field. Part of that may have been due to the return of Brandon Miller in the starting lineup, but Bridges should be more involved in the Hornets' offense alongside Miller and LaMelo Ball. Bridges will look to get things right against the Timberwolves on Monday.

Bridges was ejected from Friday's loss to the Celtics in the final seconds after receiving two technical fouls, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.
After a relatively tight contest against the reigning champions, the Hornets fell off the tracks late, with Bridges and Grant Williams getting ejected and LaMelo Ball also receiving a technical foul. Bridges finished the contest with 14 points (5-16 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and a steal in 31 minutes.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Struggles in win
Bridges finished with seven points (2-11 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one block over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 138-133 victory over the Raptors.
Bridges had his worst game of the season Wednesday, failing to score double-digit points for the first time in four games. The 26-year-old forward's poor shooting night has dragged his field-goal percentage down to 39.6 percent and his three-point percentage down to 25.0 percent for the season.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Misses out on double-double
Bridges produced 10 points (5-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 110-105 win over the Rockets.
Despite missing all three of his three-point attempts, Bridges was Charlotte's third-leading scorer in Wednesday's victory. Bridges continues to be one of the NBA's best rebounders out of the forward position, as he has averaged at least seven boards per game over the last two seasons.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Near double-double vs. Miami
Bridges finished Tuesday's 111-108 win over the Heat with 14 points (5-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), nine rebounds and one assist over 20 minutes.
Bridges was the second-leading rebounder for the Hornets on Tuesday behind Moussa Diabate (10). Bridges signed a three-year, $75 million extension with the Hornets in July, and he's expected to build off a strong 2023-24 campaign, during which he averaged 21.0 points on 46.2 percent shooting, 7.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 0.9 steals across 37.4 minutes per game.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Participating in camp
Bridges (wrist) was spotted going through Tuesday's practice to open training camp.
Bridges missed the Hornets' season finale April 14 with a wrist injury, but it was likely a precaution with the team having nothing to play for. Bridges has a fresh three-year, $75 million contract with the Hornets, though his usage rate could take a hit this season with LaMelo Ball healthy and Brandon Miller potentially ready for a larger role.
