Miles Bridges hit with 30-game suspension for domestic violence
The NBA said in a statement however that Bridges, who is a restricted free agent, would miss only 10 games if he eventually signs with a new club.
The 25-year-old missed the entirety of the 2022-2023 season following the incident, a factor that prompted the NBA to deem that 20 games of Bridges' suspension have already been served.
Bridges pleaded no contest to a felony domestic violence charge in November last year following the incident in Los Angeles.
The NBA issued its suspension on Friday after conducting its own investigation which included speaking to multiple witnesses. The league also sought consultations with domestic violence experts to provide guidance.
"The 30-game suspension is based on all facts and circumstances of this matter and considers the conduct and its result, as well as the outcome of the criminal matter, among other factors," the NBA said.
