Miles Bridges’ situation continues to get complicated. As reported by Jessica Allen and Glenn Counts, journalists from WSOC, the Hornets forward faces a new arrest warrant related to his case of sexist violence, although this time it was not due to any assault. According to this information, the player would have violated the restraining order that was imposed on him as part of the sentence, an incident that took place during the month of January.
As the report states, Bridges failed to comply with this order when he was seen near the home of the victim, whose car appeared with a broken windshield. However, since the player has not yet been arrested, all the specific data is not yet known in detail, as the arrest warrant has not been made public.
The Hornets have claimed to be aware of the situation, but have limited themselves to stating that they are gathering information on the matter. The franchise is in a very complicated situation, since his decision to give Bridges a new contract was already quite controversial after the very harsh images of the victim and the sentence that declared him guilty. We will see how those in North Carolina approach the issue from now on, as they have the opportunity to reverse the decision made in June or continue fleeing forward with this case.

For now, at the sporting level, Bridges faces only a 10-game suspension. The NBA imposed a penalty of 30 on him, but, in a strange decision, it made 20 of them considered already served since the player was not part of the competition during the 22-23 season. This summer, however, he did sign an agreement with the Hornets, according to which he will receive 7.9 million dollars.
