[Official] Miles Bridges signs Qualifying Offer and makes his first statement


“I sincerely apologize for the pain, embarrassment and disappointment that last year’s incident caused so many people,” said Bridges. “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. I’m grateful to the Hornets and the NBA community for giving me a second chance – most people don’t ever get one and I understand those questioning whether I deserve one. I will do everything I can to earn back the trust and confidence of my teammates, coaches, the Hornets organization and staff, fans, and the Charlotte community. I’m ready to return to work and can’t wait to rejoin my Hornets teammates.” – Miles Bridges

  1. That was almost certainly not written by Miles himself. But the flowery language doesn’t matter as much as the intent behind it. I hope he means it. Ball out, be a good person off the court, and earn your payday with us next year, Miles.

  2. Let’s get it miles, thanks for the statement. I’m sure you a genuine guy.

    Time to get to work on and off the court, your actions will speak louder than words back it up my brother

  3. A fine statement. If his actions on and off the court match, his future is as promising as we thought it was 18 months ago.

  4. good statement imo, hopefully he shows his remorse through some actions but who knows considering the legality of the situation

  5. PR statement if I’ve ever seen one, but a good PR statement. Now go back it up.

  6. I really hope he did start therapy and he’s taking it seriously instead of doing some Ja level breathing exercises.
