After an outstanding freshman season, Miles Bridges decided to stay. His play along with the inconsistent play of Michigan State might’ve hurt Bridges’ draft stock.

For the Clippers, that’s a good thing. Bridges is a phenomenal athlete, a dynamic scorer, and has showcased capabilities both at rebounding and defending. Albeit Bridges was in college just two seasons, he certainly grew his game, averaging 17.1 points per game his final season.

On top of his scoring, Bridges can shoot. Averaging two triples per game, Bridges would be a perfect addition to the Clippers, a team that struggled from behind the arc. The Clippers were one of just ten teams to average fewer than 10 threes per game.

In today’s NBA, you need shooting. Bridges is far from just a shooter though. Bridges has received rather bold comparisons to Carmelo Anthony and other former superstars.

Bridges can ball, and I put a lot of money that he doesn’t fall outside of the lottery.
