Is it the end of Miles Bridges’ NBA career after violating his Hornets lifeline?

According to the charlotteobserver.com, Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges turned himself in to the authorities last week after violating his ex-girlfriend's domestic violence order.

New information last week revealed that Bridges was violating the domestic violence protection order due to persistent contact on the phone and social media.

While turning himself in, Bridges was accompanied by his attorney and was released on a $1,000 bond. He turned himself in just before 7 AM and gave his fingerprints to detention officials.

The charges on which Bridges turned himself in on Friday relate to a warrant issued by Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police in January, in which he was accused of violating the protection order.

Bridges joined back with the Charlotte Hornets in July, and from what it looks like, The Hornets organization had no idea that Bridges violated the court's conditions.

According to Charlotte Hornets YouTube, Hornets general manager Mitch Kupchak said: "My understanding since November is that Miles has been complying with the conditions that the district attorney in Los Angeles laid out."

This new piece of information will come as a shock for the Hornets organization, who signed Bridges to a one-year $7.92 million qualifying offer on the basis that he was complying with the law, according to Dailymail.co.uk.

Speaking at a return press conference in July this year, Bridges said: "I've been spending a lot of time in therapy to become a better individual, and I'm going to continue going there and get better."

It turns out that since he said he was continuing to go to therapy to better himself, Bridges has new criminal allegations, with his ex-girlfriend accusing him of throwing pool balls at the car and smashing the windscreen whilst his kids were in the car.

The new summons charged Bridges with misdemeanor child abuse, injury to personal property, and a domestic protective order violation.

Bridges is already serving three years of probation after pleading no contest in exchange for no jail time in the June 2022 domestic violence case with the mother of his children.

The NBA already has Bridges on a ten-game suspension after the case last year, with Bridges training and traveling with the team in pre-season in preparation for his ban to be lifted.

Since the news that he handed himself in last week, Bridges has still been allowed to practice at the Hornets training facility.

In light of the latest news on the case, the NBA and Charlotte Hornets have said they are looking into the situation and gathering new information.

The NBA may look to put harsher sanctions on Bridges and increase his game suspensions to something more suitable. Fellow NBA player Ja Morant is banned for 25 games after two firearm incidents.

The Hornets signed Bridges on the basis that he was bettering himself and complying with court order. However, in light of this latest news, Miles Bridges looks as though his NBA career is finished.
