Miles Bridges and The Charlotte Hornets campaign came to a disappointing end on Wednesday. For the second year in a row, the Hornets were knocked out of the playoffs after losing the play-in tournament. Last year they lost to the Indiana Pacers and this year they lost to the Atlanta Hawks. And this loss seemed to take a toll on Bridges as he lashed out against a fan while exiting the arena.

The Hawks sealed their spot in the playoffs with a 132-103 victory over the Hornets. The Hawks took the lead by the end of the first quarter and they did not look back for a moment. They built it up to 33 at one point. In the fourth quarter, Bridges was called for goaltending and he did not seem to agree with the call. He went charging at the refs and he was thrown out of the game.

While walking to the locker room, a fan appeared to wave goodbye at Bridges. And he did not like that and he tossed his mouthpiece. Unfortunately, his mouthpiece hit another fan who was standing on the other side. Bridges has apologized to the fan on Twitter and has asked to find out more about the fan.

My son was watching the game and I had to take him to the hospital because he couldn't stop shaking out of fear. I wanted to be brave but I'm still shaking as well.

As a lifelong @hornets fan I’m disgusted at this. I really think we need to clean out the locker room of this type of behavior. I’d like us to target Tobias Harris who is a true professional and seems to be available this offseason. I’d love a Tobias for Miles flip.

Hi Miles, my son Bobby saw this on live television. He immediately ran over to his sister Priktri and 1/2 McGregored, then 3/4 mayweathered her. Right jab left hook right uppercut combo. She is only 4. Please realize your actions influence younger generations to cause harm.
