New Suns forward Miles Bridges exits preseason game with apparent injury
Phoenix Suns forward Miles Bridges grabbed at his ankle while sitting on the court, but he kept playing.
In the Phoenix Suns preseason game against the Chicago Bulls, forward Miles Bridges was forced to leave the court with what seemed to be an ankle injury around the 11-minute mark of the first half. Despite initially maintaining his position, Bridges eventually tied his shoe and ultimately exited the game, heading to the locker room.
Rasheer Fleming took Bridges' spot on the court. Phoenix held a 64-62 lead at halftime. The Suns acquired Bridges during the offseason trade that sent Grayson Allen, Royce O’Neale, and future draft picks to the Charlotte Hornets. Bridges made his preseason debut on Oct. 5 against the Detroit Pistons, contributing eight points, five rebounds, and four assists. Phoenix's regular season opener is scheduled for Oct. 21 against the Portland Trail Blazers.
