NBA Commentator Takes Shot at Bridges Assault Charges

Due to claims of domestic assault, Hornets star Miles Bridges had been absent from the NBA for almost 600 days. Upon finally making his long-awaited return, an NBA commentator kicked things off with a highly controversial remark hinting at the star's off-court dramas.

Bridges Return

While his basketball talents are undeniable, and his absence has been felt by the Charlotte Hornets, many people aren't thrilled about Bridges' return. Due to the allegations against him, there's an opinion circulating that suggests Bridges should face a complete indefinite ban rather than the served suspension.

With this divisive fan reaction, the league has taken notice. Appearing on Sportsnet, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver revealed all the details about Bridges' return.


Commentators Comment

Bridges has made an immediate impact on the Hornets' offense since his return. In his second game back, he executed an impressive finger roll layup, prompting Hornets announcer Eric Collins to make a eyebrow-raising comment.


To the average viewer, this comment might pass by unnoticed. However, for those aware of the allegations against Miles, it could carry a double meaning. It's unclear how intentional the remark was, but it certainly stands out as in poor taste, especially given the timing of Bridges' recent return.
