Mike Breen lauded Mikal Bridges' match with the New York Knicks.
Breen's duties as the primary voice of the Knicks for MSG Network certainly got more exciting this week, as the team reportedly traded for Brooklyn Nets star Mikal Bridges, per ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. Breen lauded the deal on "Night Mode," the web series hosted by his former broadcasting colleague Mark Jackson."He's such a terrific two-way players. There are so many positives.
Bridges will switch boroughs after a year-plus with the Nets, coming east as the headlining piece of the trade that sent Kevin Durant to the Phoenix Suns. The trade has made headlines for Bridges' prior collegiate endeavors, as he'll reunite with fellow former Villanova Wildcats Jalen Brunson, Donte DiVincenzo, and Josh Hart. Bridges won two national titles with Villanova alongside Brunson and DiVincenzo while Hart was with the trio during the first in 2016.
"He's a great defensive player, not a good defensive player. Obviously, he's shown he can score 20 or more, you're probably not going to have to do that on a nightly basis because they have so much depth," Breen continued. "High-character, very available every night, the guy never misses a game. As we know, that's critical in the NBA. He's young and he can grow with these guys.
