The Charlotte Hornets continue their offseason overall.

The Hornets are trading veteran forward Miles Bridges, a 2029 first-round draft pick and a 2027 second-round pick to the Phoenix Suns for guard Grayson Allen, forward Royce O’Neale and a 2033 first-round pick.

The trade was reported by Shams Charania of ESPN on Sunday.

This marks the second major trade by Charlotte in days after the team shipped star point guard LaMelo Ball to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Thursday in a deal that brought them Naz Reid, while also swapping draft picks.

Bridges, 28, had spent his entire seven-year NBA career with the Hornets after being acquired on the night of the 2018 draft.

He was Charlotte's longest-tenured player and ranks third in team history in scoring (7,956), as well as fourth in both rebounds (3,077) and 3-pointers (880).

In 77 games last season - all starts - he averaged 17.1 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists while shooting 33.3 per cent on 3-pointers.

He helped the Hornets to 44-38 record last season - a 25-win improvement from 2024-25 - but after losing to the Orlando Magic in the play-in game, the team has decided to shake up its roster.

Allen, 30, averaged career highs of 16.5 points and 3.8 assists in 51 games for the Suns last season. The eight-year veteran averaged a career-best 3.1 made 3-pointers per game, though his accuracy from beyond the arc dropped to 34.9 per cent - his lowest since his 2018-19 rookie season.

O'Neale, 33, also averaged a career high in scoring last season at 9.8 points, while also averaging 4.8 rebounds in 78 games. The nine-year veteran also shot a career-best 40.8 per cent on 3-pointers.
