Bridges (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Celtics.
Bridges is dealing with left hip soreness, which will end up causing him to miss the final three games of the season. Josh Okogie and Tidjane Salaun should see a bump in minutes in Sunday's regular-season finale due to Bridges' absence. Bridges will end his sixth season in Charlotte averaging 20.3 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.7 blocks in 31.7 minutes per game across 64 outings.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Sitting out Wednesday
Rotowire
Bridges (hip) is out for Wednesday's game against the Raptors.
Bridges played through a questionable tag Tuesday against the Grizzlies due to left hip soreness, finishing with 14 points (4-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one block in 30 minutes. He'll be held out for maintenance Wednesday, however, meaning Tidjane Salaun could step into a more significant role for the Hornets.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Paces Charlotte in lackluster night
Rotowire
Bridges supplied 14 points (4-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one block in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 124-100 loss to the Grizzlies.
Bridges finished as the Hornets' leading scorer Tuesday, though he struggled from the field once again. Over his last three outings, the 27-year-old forward has averaged 14.7 points and 4.0 rebounds while shooting an abysmal 30.4 percent from the field. Bridges is expected to continue serving as the top option for the non-contending Hornets, who have three regular-season games remaining.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Good to go Tuesday
Rotowire
Bridges (hip) is available for Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies.
Bridges was a late addition to the injury report due to left hip soreness, though he'll shake off the questionable tag and suit up against Memphis. The 27-year-old forward has averaged 16.8 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.0 assists while shooting only 38.3 percent from the field across 28.4 minutes per contest in his last 10 outings.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Questionable for Tuesday
Rotowire
Bridges is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Grizzlies with left hip soreness.
Bridges was a very late addition to the injury report, which doesn't bode well for his status. Tuesday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, so the Hornets could be contemplating a maintenance day for one of the games. If Bridges sits out, Tidjane Salaun could step into an expanded role for Charlotte.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Struggles with shot Friday
Rotowire
Bridges totaled 22 points (7-21 FG, 2-11 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 28 minutes during Friday's 125-102 loss to Sacramento.
The final stat line was decent at first glance, although Bridges barely contributed in other areas outside of scoring, which he often does regularly. The star forward, who's likely to operate as the Hornets' go-to player on offense in the final games of the regular season, has scored at least 20 points in three of his last four outings, but the lack of efficiency looks worrisome. Bridges is shooting a mere 38.8 percent from the floor and 23.6 percent from three-point range over his last 10 appearances, averaging 16.7 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game in that stretch.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Puts up 18 points Wednesday
Rotowire
Bridges ended with 18 points (7-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one block in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 119-105 loss to the Pacers.
Bridges was efficient from the floor and also contributed in other categories despite logging a mere 24 minutes, the second time over the Hornets' last three games in which he doesn't reach the 25-minute mark. Don't be surprised if the Hornets reduce Bridges' minutes in the final days of the regular season with the team already out of playoff contention, as that would limit his fantasy upside considerably.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Available vs. Indiana
Rotowire
Bridges (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Bridges was a true game-time decision due to illness, but the star forward will be available and should have a prominent role on offense for Charlotte. Since the beginning of March, he's been averaging 22.6 points, 7.8 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Questionable for Wednesday
Rotowire
Bridges (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Bridges was a late addition to the injury report, which is usually a troubling sign for fantasy managers. He was excellent during Monday's 110-106 win over the Jazz, posting 26 points (11-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes. If he can't go, the Hornets could turn to Tidjane Salaun and Josh Okogie.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Sniffs triple-double in win
Rotowire
Bridges had 26 points (11-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Monday's 110-106 victory over the Jazz.
Bridges stuffed the stat sheet Monday, recording his 14th game with a double-double or better on the season. The 27-year-old posted game-high marks in points and assists in the win, and he was extremely efficient following a three-game span in which he had shot only 29.1 percent from the field. Bridges also sank at least three triples for the 23rd time in 60 regular-season appearances. In his last five games entering Monday's contest, Bridges had shot only 17.5 percent from beyond the arc, averaging 8.0 attempts per game.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Drops game-high 20 in loss
Rotowire
Bridges chipped in 20 points (7-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal over 22 minutes during Sunday's 98-94 loss to New Orleans.
The 27-year-old forward led all scorers on the night, but only two other Hornets even scored in double digits. Bridges' reduced minutes Sunday seemed more like a product of his team's position in the standings than his health -- Charlotte has the third-worst record, and the third-best lottery odds, in the league. Over six starts since returning from a one-game absence due to an illness, Bridges is averaging 15.7 points, 7.0 boards, 4.0 assists and 1.5 threes in 29.7 minutes a contest while shooting just 33.3 percent from the floor.
Hornets' Miles Bridges: Poor shooting display in loss
Rotowire
Bridges amassed 11 points (5-19 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds and four assists in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 111-104 loss to Orlando.
Even though Bridges has carried the Hornets on offense at times throughout the season, there's no question this was a poor performance from the veteran, as he ended with more shots than points scored. The 11-point total was his second lowest output for the month of March, though he does have exactly four assists in four straight games. The majority of Bridges' upside comes from what he can provide as a scorer, so if his shot isn't falling, his fantasy upside is reduced considerably.
Hornets' Miles Bridges: Records double-double Sunday
Rotowire
Bridges notched 17 points (7-18 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 13 rebounds and four assists in 34 minutes during Sunday's 122-105 loss to Miami.
Bridges recorded a double-double for the fourth time over his last eight appearances, and the veteran has been one of the most consistent offensive weapons for Charlotte all season long, as he's also been available for all but two games since the beginning of January. Bridges is averaging 24.5 points, 8.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.1 blocks per game since the beginning of March.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Scores 20 points in blowout defeat
Rotowire
Bridges posted 20 points (5-12 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 26 minutes during Friday's 141-106 loss to the Thunder.
Bridges embraced a more prominent role on offense due to the absence of LaMelo Ball (ankle), and the veteran forward responded with his 33rd performance with at least 20 points. Bridges is going through his most productive month of the season and is averaging a robust line of 25.2 points, 7.7 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game since the beginning of March.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Grabs 10 boards in win
Rotowire
Bridges amassed 15 points (6-17 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds and four assists across 33 minutes during Thursday's 115-98 win over New York.
LaMelo Ball and Mark Williams led the way for the Hornets in this contest, but Bridges posted a solid showing across the board and recorded his third double-double over his last six appearances. He's also scored in double digits in all but two of his 15 contests since the All-Star break.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Upgraded to available Thursday
Rotowire
Bridges (illness) will be available to play in Thursday's game against the Knicks.
Bridges missed Tuesday's game due to rest and has been dealing with an illness, but will be ready for Thursday night. The veteran forward has been a massive part of Charlotte's offense recently, averaging 28.0 points, 8.1 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.4 blocks and 0.6 steals in his last eight games.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Likely to play against New York
Rotowire
Bridges (illness) has been listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Knicks.
After missing Tuesday's loss to the Hawks for rest purposes, Bridges will likely play Thursday against New York despite battling an illness. The veteran forward recently had a hot streak in the scoring department but is coming off one of his worst games of the season offensively, finishing with seven points in the loss to the Clippers on Sunday.
