The Charlotte Hornets have traded forward Miles Bridges to the Phoenix Suns, the team confirmed on June 28, 2026. The move comes only days after an unexpected development involving star guard LaMelo Ball, marking a second jolt for Charlotte in less than a week.
Specific details of the transaction, including any players, draft picks or financial considerations heading to Charlotte, were not released with the initial announcement. Bridges, 28, spent his entire NBA career with the Hornets before the deal.
The trade reshapes rosters on both sides: Phoenix adds a versatile scorer and rebounder, while Charlotte proceeds with significant changes following the recent surprise tied to Ball.
