CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Officially a member of the Charlotte Hornets again, Miles Bridges made his first public comments addressing his arrest for felony domestic violence more than a year ago.
Bridges, who was a restricted free agent until he elected to take the Hornets’ $7.9 million qualifying offer on Sunday, said he was sorry and expressed gratitude for reuniting with the franchise that drafted him in 2018.
“I sincerely apologize for the pain, embarrassment and disappointment that last year’s incident caused so many people,” Bridges said in a statement issued by the Hornets. “Time away from the game allowed me to reflect, immerse myself in therapy and prioritize becoming a better person — someone my family and peers can be proud of.”
