ATLANTA — Miles Bridges called what he did Wednesday night “terrible” after he gave an unsuspecting Atlanta Hawks fan an unwanted souvenir.
Bridges, the Charlotte Hornets’ star forward, was ejected in the fourth quarter of the team’s 132-103 loss to the Hawks at State Farm Arena, and the home crowd let him hear it on his walk back to the locker room. But one fan, in particular, aggravated Bridges while leaving the floor.
Bridges stopped momentarily, took his mouthpiece and threw it with force at a man in a yellow ball cap standing above him. But Bridges’ throw missed and instead hit a girl two seats over in the left shoulder before it bounced into her face.
