A @the observer exclusive: go 1-on-1 with #hornets new coach Steve Clifford. We discussed the importance of interacting with LaMelo, what he’s seen of Miles Bridges, the perception that he only plays veterans and not rookies, and more:

Charlotte officially announces the qualifying offer for Miles Bridges ($7.9 million) and Cody Martin ($2.2 million).
Both are now restricted free agents and the Hornets have the option to match on an offer sheet.
They also have bird rights and Charlotte can go over the limit to sign both. † 4.14 pm

Important to know: If Miles Bridges signs a quote form with another team, Charlotte will NOT be able to sign and trade it. At that point, they can only match him or let him go. † 2:59 pm

For Miles Bridges, “A contract starting at $24 million per season (five years, $139 million) would keep the Hornets under the luxury tax” per @Bobby Marks
CLT can offer more if they change pay, which is quite achievable (Richards/Oubre NGs)

It’s a big week for the #hornets† Here are five things you probably missed after the draft that you need to know when they start off-season.
Amongst them? What Mitch Kupchak said about:
• Bridge Miles
• Gordon Hayward
• Shift in philosophy during concept

“As I reported last week, even if there is room for a player to sign a max contract, the Pistons are unlikely to throw max offers to limited free agents Deandre Ayton and Miles Bridges, although things could change. “
