But let’s take a step back: the Miles Bridges case is one of the most controversial and shocking pages in the history of the League. The story begins in June 2022, when he is arrested for having repeatedly hit his wife in the presence of their children, who say they saw their father strangle their mother, causing fractures and a severe concussion. The American basketball player leaves prison on bail, agreeing to a plea deal worth it three years of probation and the ban of not being able to come within 100 meters of his wife’s residence for ten years.
