The Nets have featured a balanced attack since trading away Kevin Durant (ankle) and Kyrie Irving (foot), but Bridges appears to be Brooklyn's No. 1 option on offense.

Another strong scoring effort Bridges ended with 34 points (13-24 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-6 FT), six rebounds and one assist in 46 minutes during Friday's 124-123 overtime victory over the Timberwolves.

Impact Bridges continues to flash his offensive upside, scoring at least 30 points for the fifth time in his past seven games. Although his defensive output has fallen slightly since joining the Nets, he has more than made up for it with efficient, high-volume scoring. He is clearly the go-to option for the Nets, and with the team still looking to push for the playoffs, he could be a sneaky top-15 asset ROS.

Workload likely restricted Thursday Nets head coach Jacque Vaughn relayed Thursday that Bridges will "probably not" see a full workload in the evening's tilt versus the Bucks, Alex Schiffer of The Athletic reports.

Impact There doesn't seem to be a concern in terms of an injury for Bridges, so it's likely the case that he will get more of a breather than usual in a game that features a healthy spread in favor of the Bucks and numerous regulars in Brooklyn's starting five sitting out. Bridges enters the night averaging 26.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.1 steals over 34.9 minutes per game in his 10 appearances since joining the Nets.
