Mikal Bridges became one of the break-out stars of last season. His move to the Brooklyn Nets allowed Bridges to flex his offensive muscles. He has instantly become a fan favorite in Brooklyn with his incredible performances. However, he has failed to woo WNBA superstar, A’ja Wilson.

Bridges often cuts out a shy and reserved figure on the court. However, Bridges spilled the beans on his dating life in a recent interview with GQ.

Bridges feels dating is tricky as an NBA star

A little while ago, Mikal Bridges created a viral moment when he landed in A’ja Wilson’s comment section. In June, Wilson posted, “Leave me alone. We cool over here,” after Bridges enquired about her next game. Although fans have trolled Bridges for being rejected by Wilson, the truth of the matter is that the two share an extremely close bond. Mikal has even referred to A’ja as his “bestie” in June.

However, in a recent interview with GQ, Bridges opened up about his dating life. He said, “I think I surprise people. Women, they’re around a lot of athletes who pop their shit, this and that. I just chill.”

Bridges further that it’s tough to have a natural and genuine relationship because of the fame. He said, “I don’t know. I think all that’s tough. I want it to be natural, like randomly meet somebody. But I’m also kind of at the stage now where I’m not even looking to be with anybody. Just being on my own, single and chilling.”
