Bridges is arguably the best pure athlete in the draft. He’s both strong and explosive at 6-6, normally liable for one or two highlight dunks per game.
Paired with Tobias Harris at the forward spots, Bridges would give the Clippers another spot-up shooter capable of making strong moves to the rim, both as a cutter and in straight-line drives. He needs to clean up his handles, but Bridges has some go-to scoring upside.
While not long enough to be a traditional power forward, Bridges’ strength and leaping ability should allow him to make due as a small-ball four. He can already defend three or four positions, with the potential to defend all five in spurts if his fundamentals improve.
