Miles Bridges agreed to a one-year, $7.9 million qualifying offer the Charlotte Hornets had to extend to keep him restricted. According to Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports, Bridges wanted $25 million per year from the team.
“One year later, it’s no surprise a similar market didn’t materialize for Bridges, who was seeking upward of $25 million in average annual value from the Hornets this July, league sources told Yahoo Sports,” Fischer wrote. “Charlotte and Bridges’ representation were far enough apart in negotiations that Bridges swiftly took the qualifying offer not even 24 hours into free agency.”
