What changed

Last season (2025-26)
Points-5.3Probably real

Bridges's scoring is down 5.3 points a game over his 19 games since Mar 6 (10.3 vs 15.6). Much of it is playing time: his minutes went from 34.1 to 28.8 a game. Also shot volume: his shots per 36 minutes (counting free throw trips) went from 13.8 to 11.9. Probably real: about 70% should hold.
