This favorable collective context does not prevent the local team from wondering about its future. Recently, there have been rumors surrounding Miles Bridgeswhich would interest Milwaukee, Golden State and Phoenix. The winger says he is focused on winning.

The goal of stability?

« Whether they trade me or not…I’d rather stay here. But I know if I do transfer, Jeff Peterson (Hornets president of basketball operations) and his team will talk to me about it first. So I try not to worry about it. I only care about the games », he confided in the Charlotte Observer.

Author of 20 points against the Wizards, Bridges is the No. 4 option on his team behind Brandon Miller, LaMel Ball and Kon Knuepel, averaging 19 points. Therefore, there is no shortage of young talent in this team.

But you just have to control what you can control and keep the winning streak going. », Wishes Bridges will get $25 million this season, before the final year of his contract at nearly $23 million.

« That’s the goal, for everyone to stay here. But unfortunately, this is the reality of the industry. Focusing on what is under our control would already be a good thing. We stay united, we stay focused in the locker room. We hear it, we see it all. We mustn’t let that bother us, neither as men nor as basketball players. That’s why we stay focused on our brothers in arms and that’s how we move forward », shows Brandon Miller for his part.
