As for the man himself, I like Mikal quite a bit, and in a Philly trade scenario where SA already gets Fultz, Bridges makes a lot of sense if he falls to 10. He's not replacing Kawhi or anything, but him, Murray, and Fultz would form quite a perimeter trio in terms of length and athleticism.
nj.com: NBA Mock Draft 2018: Kawhi Leonard trade to Lakers, Celtics or Sixers; How far will Luka Doncic fall?
Eliot Shorr-Parks, June 18, 2018
10. Spurs: Mikal Bridges, SF, Villanova
TRADE! The Sixers land a top-five player when healthy in Leonard, sending Markelle Fultz, Robert Covington, the No. 10 overall pick and the No. 26 overall pick to the Spurs. For the Spurs, the deal nets them a player one year removed from going No. 1 overall and a top 10 pick.
In Bridges, the Spurs get a 6' 7" swingman that averaged 18 points and five rebounds per game last season, leading Villanova to the NCAA le. He has been compared to Leonard, so the Spurs taking him at No. 10 overall with the pick they get from the Sixers makes sense.
Scouting report: Bridges is an easy player to slot on almost any NBA roster, thanks to his multipositional defensive versatility and role player potential. Of the top wing prospects in this year's draft, Bridges likely has the highest floor thanks to his tools, production, winning impact, defense and spot shooting. He is not much of a ball handler or shot creator, which means he's unlikely to emerge as a high-usage player early in his career. (via ESPN)
The problem will be he will go 8th or 9th probably
Sixers took him with the 10th pick. The Spurs should have made this trade.
This was a better deal than the one the spurs made with Toronto.
The Spurs should have tried hard to make this deal with Phil to land Bridges.
