Miles Bridges on future with Hornets: If I could, I’d pull a Dirk or a Kobe

How much do you still want to be a part as we like to talk about long term and be here forever? Miles Bridges: If I could, I’d pull a Dirk or a Kobe, you know. I love being in Charlotte. I love the fans. I love the atmosphere and I want to be a part of some that’s building. We’re building something. And eventually we want to win a championship.

More on this storyline

“I’m not worried about the money,” Bridges told The Undefeated after getting 32 points, nine rebounds and making five 3-pointers in a 114-92 loss to the Golden State Warriors on Nov. 3. “I’m really just worried about playing the right way and winning. I will let my agent worry about all that stuff and just worry about the game.” -via The Undefeated / November 8, 2021
