If there were an award for healthiest sense of self in the NBA, new Nets forward Mikal Bridges might be a frontrunner.
Speaking to reporters Saturday afternoon, Bridges candidly acknowledged that he understood why the Suns traded him to Brooklyn Thursday morning: the allure of acquiring future Hall of Fame forward Kevin Durant was simply too good to pass up.
"It’s KD, I get it," Bridges said. "I would rather get traded for KD than someone I didn’t feel was good… It’s Kevin Durant. I would probably make that trade, too.”
