Bridges , Mikal Villanova 6'7" 191 SF jr. Bridges plays with poise, versatility and skill. He averaged 17.7 points, and 5.3 rebounds per game during the NCAA championship season for Villanova. ...He has made himself into a deadly three point shooter that hits 43.5% of his deep attempts. He improved his three-point percentage with each season. He moves without the basketball like a seasoned NBA player. He has an excellent assist-to-turnover ratio (1.43-to-1 in 2017-18) for a potential small forward. He is a career 84% free throw shooter. There is lots to like about Bridges' game, including the fact that he gets after it on defense. Bridges led the Big East two years in a row in Box Score Plus/Minus. ...He doesn't create much off the dribble but counters that inability by being a willing passer that will swing the ball. He will be loved by teammates because of how he plays. We think Bridges will be a starting small forward in the NBA, and we expect him to be picked in the late-lottery.
Good Advice: In 2011, the 10th pick in the NBA Draft was Jimmer Fredette. We advised, "Draft Kawhi Leonard."
