While Team USA easily corrected Italy in the quarter-finals of the World Cup, Mikal Bridges took the opportunity to put on a show with 24 points and 7 rebounds in just 18 minutes. Too easy the leader of the Nets.
Mikal Bridges or Kevin Durant, we’re not really sure who was on the pitch this afternoon against Italy. It must be said that the first tends to play as well as the second since his transfer from Phoenix to Brooklyn. If Anthony Edwards remains the leader of this 2023 version of Team USA, Mikal Bridges reminded us against Italy that we must also count on him in scoring. On fire, Mikal Bridges gave us the full arsenal. Big shoot from the parking lot, circle attack with the small and one. All good for Mr Ponts who, as always, was an essential link in defense with two interceptions in particular.
If the match was already almost over at the break with a large lead for Team USA, Bridges’ heat stroke on returning from the locker room closed the debates once and for all. 10 points in 5 minutes for the winger to get his best mark of the tournament: 24 units at 73% shooting including 4/6 from the parking lot. He was even able to rest quietly for the entire end of the match on the bench.
