Roderick Boone: As for Bridges, who’s already told the Observer he doesn’t want to go anywhere else and prefers to stay with the Hornets, a league source indicated at least three teams are interested in potentially acquiring the 25-year-old. But given he can choose his next preferred destination since he possesses a no-trade clause as part of the one-year, $7.9 million qualifying offer, Bridges’ situation is the more dicey because Charlotte isn’t in complete control of the combo forward’s future. His pending legal case is also something any suitors must consider. Bridges is due in Mecklenberg County court on Feb. 20 for a hearing that involves an alleged violation of a domestic violence protective order.

Miles Bridges posted a career-best 41 points in the #Hornets loss to the Lakers. Will it be one of his final acts in a Charlotte uniform?
And which player is generating the most incoming calls inquiring about their availability?
It’s trade deadline week:

As for Charlotte wing Miles Bridges, the Phoenix Suns continue to be described by league personnel as the team most motivated to land the Michigan State product. And it should be noted that Bridges hails from the same Spartans program that Phoenix owner Mat Ishbia was a part of under legendary head coach Tom Izzo. Bridges would add a sturdy forward that Phoenix’s roster currently lacks and could allow the Suns to deploy more effective small-ball lineups with Kevin Durant at the five. -via Yahoo!
