The Charlotte Hornets released the following statement about Miles Bridges upon the conclusion of his suspension and his eligibility to play in NBA games again beginning on Friday.
“Miles Bridges is eligible to return to our active roster on Friday after serving his NBA suspension. We are comfortable with Miles returning to play based on our current understanding of the facts of the recent allegations and remain in contact with the NBA as that matter proceeds through the court process.”
Bridges received a 10-game suspension after sitting out the entire 22-23 season following his no contest plea to a felony domestic violence charge. The NBA technically suspended Bridges for 30 games, but counted 20 games of the suspension last season when he was unsigned.
Bridges allegedly violated a domestic violence protective order last month and that case is pending.
The NBA also has a pair of ongoing high profile suspensions in Ja Morant (25 games, showing firearm on social media) and Draymond Green (five games, grabbing Rudy Gobert by neck).
The Hornets are planning a “significant role” for Bridges on the court.
