Follow Us
Currently, struggling in the second-last position in the Eastern Conference, the Charlotte Hornets are clearly going through a rough spell. The team has lost some of its key players to injury over the past month. However, with LaMelo Ball back in the starting lineup, the Hornets are looking to turn things around. And one of the moves the team is looking to make is signing their former player, Miles Bridges back into the squad.
Miles Bridges was let go by the Hornets franchise due to the domestic violence charges brought up against him. Bridges, who was on the track to be a rising star, has since been a free agent hoping for another shot.

Now, it looks like his former team is ready to sign him back as Michael Jordan’s Hornets and Bridges come to terms with a new deal. However, even after Bridges signs a new deal, he will have to serve a suspension period issued by the league.
Fans however were not on board with the team’s decision to sign back their former player given the charges he was brought up on.

Fans voiced their concerns over signing the convicted player and lashed out at the Hornets for even considering him as an option.
The current state of the Charlotte Hornets
Miles Bridges was the team’s scoring leader last season. And without his presence on the floor, the Hornets have really struggled to win games. The Hornets are currently 9-24 right now, barely able to string together a winning streak.

Though players like Kelly Oubre Jr. and Terry Rozier have increased their point production in the absence of the Michigan State product. The team still requires a formidable wing who can score in bunches.

The Charlotte Hornets have had players miss time off the floor due to injuries. Gordon Hayward had recently sustained an injury that sidelined him for a few games. Then LaMelo Ball too missed out on the first two months for the team.

And even in their last win over the Los Angeles Lakers, the Hornets only ran a nine-man squad for the entirety of the game. So, with the return of Bridges to the team, the Hornets would get another reliable scorer who is capable of being a good defender as well.
Let’s see if the Hornets’ front office finalizes a deal with Bridges and he returns to the floor for the team.
