Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges aggravated a bone bruise in his right knee in Tuesday's loss to the Brooklyn Nets and will miss Saturday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks, the team announced Friday.
Bridges is scheduled to be reevaluated next Tuesday and will likely also miss Monday's game against the Orlando Magic.
Bridges sat out of Charlotte's 123-121 win Thursday against the Detroit Pistons. The 26-year-old is averaging 16 points, 6.5 rebounds, and three assists in 11 games this season.
Hornets guard Tre Mann will also miss Saturday's game due to low back soreness, the Hornets added.
Mann is averaging 14.1 points and three assists in 13 games off the bench.
The 6-9 Hornets sit ninth in the Eastern Conference.
