I’m a big believer in due process and letting it play out, but I believe Miles Bridges deserves whatever is coming to him. I just hope this isn’t yet another failure of the legal process. The details released today are horrible and he should be nowhere near a basketball court. – 9:33 PM

“Domestic violence creates physical, mental and emotional trauma that has a lasting impact on survivors,” District Attorney Gascón said. “Children who witness family violence are especially vulnerable and the impact on them is immeasurable. Mr. Bridges will be held accountable for his actions and our Bureau of Victim Services will support the survivors through this difficult process.” -via LA County District Attorney’s Office / July 19, 2022
Jake Fischer on Miles Bridges: The only thing I’ll say about the qualifying offer… I know it hasn’t happened yet. I have that on solid grounds. And everyone I’ve talked to around the league, no one expects them to pull it either. -via Spotify / July 8, 2022
