Phoenix Suns general manager Brian Gregory said the franchise was comfortable bringing in veteran forward Miles Bridges despite what he described as “unacceptable conduct that has occurred in the past.”
Gregory’s comments addressed the organization’s decision to add Bridges while acknowledging the seriousness of the off-court issues tied to the player’s history. The Suns’ front office framed the move as one it was prepared to make after evaluating the circumstances surrounding Bridges.
Bridges arrives in Phoenix as a veteran forward, giving the Suns another experienced option on the roster. Gregory’s remarks made clear that the team is aware of the concerns connected to Bridges’ past while standing by its decision to bring him in.
The Suns did not dismiss the nature of Bridges’ previous conduct, with Gregory specifically calling it unacceptable. At the same time, he said the franchise felt comfortable proceeding with the addition.
