Wing, Miles Bridges. Sophomore, Michigan State.
"“Bridges is arguably the best athlete in this draft and plays a coveted position as a two-way forward who can guard all over the floor. He converted 39 percent of his 3-pointers as a freshman and is making strides with his ball-handling and playmaking abilities as well.”"
"“Bridges is arguably both the best athlete and most resilient player in college basketball. He plays hard, complementary basketball as a cutter, rebounder, and defender. He’s a lefty shooter, yet finishes beautifully against contact with either hand at the rim. Bridges does all the little things. Spartans head coach Tom Izzo loves Bridges, and so will whatever NBA coach he ends up playing for.”"
My analysis:
Last NBA draft, Bridges could have easily been a lottery pick. He’s a great athlete and plays hard on both ends of the floor.
Bridges has the ability to win a defense player of the year award in the NBA. To go along with that, he can score and make plays on offense.
The Blazers would love to add a guy like Bridges because of his versatility and shot making. They have missed having a guy like that since Wesley Matthews left.
Bridges is also a great kid with a high IQ in basketball and in life. He isn’t going to come in and cause any issues. He wants to play hard and win.
