“We’re going to bring him back.”

Mitch Kupchak, the Hornets general manager, commented on forward Miles Bridges when asked about his situation. He said, “As an organization, we love Miles, ok? And we’re going to bring him back. He’s been great for the franchise, and I believe, with his work ethic, he’s only going to get better.” A few weeks ago, NBA analysts were reporting that Kupchak was stalling to offer Bridges a maximum contract.
Now, Kupchak might not have a choice. The forward is a restricted free agent. He will test free agency for the highest possible offer. And this all comes down to whether or not the Hornets can afford to keep him. He earned $5,421,493 last season. Bridges will be asking for a deal in the ballpark figure of four years, $130 million. While such a contract sounds ridiculous for this fifth-year player, he did have a career season.
NBA betting picks, sports betting content, news, and rumors are on the main page.
In the 2021-22 season, Bridges averaged 20.2 points, 7.0 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game in 80 games played. He ranked 12th in the league in made field goals (596). Plus, he finished 15th in total points (1,613). Not to mention, the 24-year-old played 35.5 minutes per game, ranking seventh overall.
Is Miles Bridges worth his asking price?
Furthermore, on Nov. 20, 2021, in the Hornets’ 115-105 loss to the Hawks, Bridges scored a career-high 35 points. Also, in the Hornets’ 132-103 loss to the Hawks in the play-in tournament, the forward finished his performance with 12 points, 4.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists. He was 0-for-4 from 3-point range. Bridges deserves to get paid, but is the forward worth his demands? It’s just something to think about.
Additionally, it is unknown as to where Kupchak will move Gordon Hayward and Terry Rozier. Before Kyrie Irving opted in with the Nets, one rumor circulated that Charlotte would trade Hayward and Rozier for Irving. Of course, that trade never manifested. In a total of 49 games played last season, Hayward averaged 15.9 points, 4.6 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game.

G.M. Mitch Kupchak could trade Gordon Hayward and Terry Rozier
Likewise, Rozier averaged 19.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game in 73 games played. While Hayward is projected to earn $$30.1 million for the 2022-23 season, Rozier is set to make $21.5 million. As of right now, both players could end up on the Lakers to make room for Miles Bridges and potentially Russell Westbrook. That NBA trade rumor is still floating around on social media.
Either way, it’s unlikely the Hornets’ roster will remain the same heading into next season. LaMelo Ball could use more support. He won Rookie of the Year in 2021, and Ball is aiming to further develop his game. Perhaps he could use a veteran like Westbrook. This deal could be in the works behind closed doors.

Steph Curry signs Pete Davidson Michael Jackson hoodie

Steph Curry signed the pink Michael Jackson hoodie that Pete Davidson wore when Curry broke the all-time 3-pointer record at Madison Square Garden.
Davidson, a former Saturday Night Live star, decided to wear a pink hoodie, while all the other NBA fans around him wore white, blue and orange colors. No one could miss him, especially considering he had a courtside seat.
On December 14, 2021, during the first quarter of the Warriors’ 105-96 win over the Knicks, Curry sank his 2,974th career 3-pointer. As soon as the 13-year veteran made the basket, Davidson was one of the loudest fans celebrating in the arena.
Steph Curry signs Pete Davidson Michael Jackson hoodie
This autograph is a big deal to the former SNL cast member because all the iconic photos of Curry’s record-breaking shot will feature his pink M.J. hoodie.
It seems fitting to wear a “King of Pop” hoodie to an important game to support the “King of 3-pointers.”
According to TMZ, Nick Drbal received the hoodie from Pete’s camp to have Curry sign it. Drbal is Steph’s memorabilia partner.
Furthermore, Curry ended his performance with a team-high 22 points in 35 minutes played. He finished 8-for-19 from the field and 5-14 from 3-point range.
In the 2021-22 NBA season, the Finals MVP made 285 3-pointers. All things considered, it was not his best season. And that’s ok. By the end of the 2015-16 season, Curry sank a career-high 402 3-pointers.
His MVP performance that season was magical. The baby-faced assassin averaged 30.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 2.1 steals per game.
He also averaged a career-high 50.4% from beyond the arc as well. Entering the 2022-23 season, the four-time NBA champion has 3,117 made shots from downtown.
The guard will only distance himself from his competition in the coming years. He turns 35 next year.
Therefore, it’s probably a great idea for fans to hang onto Steph Curry-autographed merchandise. Even Davidson’s M.J. hoodie will be worth a high-dollar amount when the two-time scoring champion retires.

Celtics sign guard Denzel Valentine to one-year deal

The Boston Celtics have signed Denzel Valentine to a one-year deal. This is a non-guaranteed contract. The fifth-year player was selected 14th overall by the Chicago Bulls in the 2016 NBA Draft. The 6’4″ guard played with the Bulls from 2016–21.
In the 2017-18 season, while with Chicago, Valentine averaged career-highs 10.2 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game. Out of 77 games played that season, the guard started in 37 contests.

Furthermore, on March, 17, 2018, in the Bulls’ 114-109 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Valentine scored a career-high 34 points in 39 minutes of action. The guard shot 13-for-20 (65%) from the field and 8-for-11 (72.7%) from downtown. Can he play this well on the Celtics? Only time will tell.
After playing for the Bulls, on September 22, 2021, the guard signed a multi-year contract with the Cavaliers. However, Valentine only played 22 games with the Cavs last season.
On January 3, 2022, the Cavs traded him to the New York Knicks. Two days later, the Knicks waived him. Then, he signed a 10-day contract with the Utah Jazz. He went on to play just two games with the Jazz.
Denzel Valentine can help the Celtics next season
Moreover, in 12 games played with the Maine Celtics — the team’s NBA G League affiliate — last season, the guard averaged 14.6 points, 10.3 rebounds, 7 assists and 1.1 steals per game.
As a teenager, the Lansing, Michigan, native attended J.W. Sexton High School. In his senior season, the Red Hawks finished 27-1, and Valentine averaged 14 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists per game.
Through 144 games played in the NCAA with Michigan State, Valentine averaged 11.4 points, 5.9 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game. Also, he averaged 44.2% shooting from the field and 40.8% from 3-point range.
During his junior season, he was selected to the third-team All-Big Ten in 2015. It will be interesting to see how Celtics coach Ime Udoka utilizes Valentine.
In his senior 2015-16 season, the guard also recorded career-high numbers across the board. In 31 games played, Valentine averaged 19.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, 7.8 assists and 1 steal per game. Not to mention, he finished 46.2% shooting from the floor and 44.4% from beyond the arc.
As a senior, the guard won several awards in 2016: AP Player of the Year, NABC Player of the Year, Senior CLASS Award, Julius Irving Award, Lute Olson Award, Big Ten Player of the Year and Big Ten Tournament MOP.
To add to the aforementioned accomplishments, Valentine was selected to the first-team All-Big Ten and consensus first-team All-American in 2016.
The fifth-year player turns 29 this November. If the guard survives training camp, he’ll help add depth to the Celtics’ backcourt. He first has to make the roster. The NBA G League might be a better fit. Other news stories related to Denzel Valentine are on the main page.

Warriors reveal new Statement, Classic Edition uniforms for next season

The Golden State Warriors unveiled their new Statement Edition and Classic Edition uniforms for the 2022-23 season. The Classic Edition will feature the notable “Run TMC” style uniforms.
Plus, the Warriors basketball logo will appear on the left side of the shorts.
For the Statement Edition uniforms, “Golden State” will be visible across the chest. This will be the first time since 1975 the city name will be distinguishable on the front of the jersey.
The Nike logo at the top right of the jersey looks neat as well. The Statement Edition uniforms look similar to the University of Michigan football jerseys.

Of course, from 1962–71, the team competed as the San Francisco Warriors. From 1946–62, the team played as the Philadelphia Warriors.
Warriors reveal new Statement Edition, Classic Edition uniforms
In 1971, the team officially became known as the Golden State Warriors. Notable stars in the ’90s include Mitch Richmond, Chris Mullin and Tim Hardaway.
Mullin played the first 12 seasons of his NBA career with the Warriors. He averaged a career-high 26.5 points per game with Golden State in the 1988-89 season. Mullin is featured in the Twitter video above, unveiling the team’s new uniforms.
Furthermore, in the early ’90s under head coach Don Nelson, the Warriors advanced as far as the conference semifinals in the 1990-91 season. They finished 44-38 (.537), and the team went on to lose in five games against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Then, after finishing 55-27 (.671) in the 1991-92 season, Nelson won Coach of the Year. The team finished second overall in the Western Conference standings. Two seasons later, Chris Webber also won Rookie of the Year.
Anyway, for the first time since 1997, the jerseys will display a “Captain’s badge” on the jerseys of the Warriors’ captains next season.
Entering the 2022-23 season, the Golden State Warriors are aiming to repeat as champions. In the 2022 NBA Finals, they defeated the Boston Celtics in six games.
After averaging 31.2 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists per game, eight-time All-Star Stephen Curry won his first Finals MVP.
The Warriors won their fourth championship in eight years and seventh title overall in franchise history. It was also the fourth title won with Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala together under head coach Steve Kerr.
