Miles Bridges Agrees To New Contract With Hornets

According to multiple reports, led by The Athletic’s Shams Charania and ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Miles Bridges has re-signed with the Charlotte Hornets after opting not to be in a potential sign-and-trade.

The 26-year-old agreed to a three-year, $75 million contract to keep the core of LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller, and Bridges together. This comes after Charlotte saw his potential when he exploded for multiple 40-point games last season.

He averaged 21.0 points, 7.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists last season. He was statistically and visually one of Charlotte’s most productive players.

Steve Clifford Stepping Down As Head Coach Of The Hornets

According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Charlotte Hornets will begin their head coach search earlier than expected after it’s been learned Steve Clifford is done coaching the team.

While the organization was open to the idea of him returning as coach next season, Clifford cited he didn’t have the commitment to return as head coach.

Jeff Peterson and co-owners Rick Schnall and Gabe Plotkin will transition the 62-year-old to a front-office position.

After coaching the Orlando Magic for three seasons, Clifford returned to the Hornets in 2022.
