CHARLOTTE, N.C. — No matter what the Charlotte Hornets do with Miles Bridges, they are about to get blasted.
Bridges, 25, pleaded no contest to a felony domestic violence charge in November in California, which resulted in counseling, community service and probation, but no jail time. It also resulted in Charlotte’s leading scorer for the 2021-22 season not playing at all in 2022-23 and getting suspended for 30 games by the NBA. Some people think he should never play basketball again — not in Charlotte or anywhere else.
Others — including the woman who shares two children with Bridges, alleged the domestic violence in the first place and posted photos of her swollen face as proof — believes that Bridges deserves another shot.
