With the free agency being days away, Miles was allegedly involved in domestic violence activities against his former girlfriend and mother of their two children. Even though the former Hornets young forward avoided jail time, the league and Adam Silver in particular are expected to slap the ‘culprit’ with a hefty and lengthy ban.

Given that such rumors are swirling in and around the league, NBA Analyst and Insider Adrian Woj. revealed how Michael Jordan owned Charlotte Hornets are in deep talks of offering Miles Bridges a new contract as he was already expected to signs a mega deal if it wasn’t for his domestic violence charges.
