Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Notches 17 points
Bridges posted 17 points (7-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, one assist, one block and one steal over 41 minutes during Sunday's 100-91 victory over Orlando.
Bridges continues to log heavy minutes for the Knicks, as this was the third time he cleared over 40 minutes in December. He's been very productive in seven December showings, averaging 21.1 points, 3.1 assists, 2.9 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 3.0 three-pointers on 56.6 percent shooting from the field and 42.0 percent from beyond the arc.

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Heating up in December
Bridges produced 20 points (8-17 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 38 minutes during Saturday's 120-111 loss to the Pistons.
It was a solid effort by Bridges, who's beginning to heat up of late following a sluggish start to the season. He's scored at least 19 points in all of his past four outings since the calendar turned to December, a span in which the 28-year-old wing is averaging 22.3 points, 4.0 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 3.5 three-pointers per game while shooting 41.2 percent from downtown. Leading the NBA in minutes per game (38.2), Bridges should remain a safe asset for fantasy managers going forward, even in a complementary role alongside Jalen Brunson in New York's starting backcourt after working as a top option on offense for the Nets a year ago. Bridges could continue to see a short-term boost in usage if Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) remains out for Monday's tilt against Toronto, a team that ranks 25th in the NBA in points allowed per game (117.4).

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Erupts for season-high 31 points
Bridges posted 31 points (12-19 FG, 7-12 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one block in 35 minutes during Sunday's 118-85 victory over New Orleans.
Bridges erupted for a season high in scoring and triples in the blowout win, with his 31 points also serving as a game-high figure. The 28-year-old two-way wing's usage has taken a hit since he was traded from the Nets to the Knicks this past offseason while playing with more stars, but he's remained a steady fantasy contributor by averaging 16.3 points, 3.2 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.3 three-pointers per game while shooting 46.6 percent from the field through 20 contests. Fantasy managers will want to see Bridges build on this performance moving ahead, but the forward has a tough matchup on tap Tuesday against a Magic team allowing the fewest points per game in the league this season.

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Scores 20 points in loss Wednesday
Bridges ended with 20 points (8-19 FG, 4-10 3Pt) and five rebounds in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 129-114 loss to the Mavericks.
Bridges reached the 20-point mark for the first time since Nov. 17 and the fifth time in the current campaign. Bridges has experienced a regression compared to the numbers he posted in 2023-24 with the Nets, but that was to be expected since he also holds a minor role on offense compared to the one he had in Brooklyn. Despite that slight regression, Bridges remains a valuable player across all formats. He's averaging 15.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game across his last 10 outings, but he's shooting only 27 percent from three in that span.

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Scores 21 points in win Sunday
Bridges logged 21 points (9-18 FG, 3-10 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 45 minutes during Sunday's 114-104 victory over Brooklyn.
Four of the five New York starters scored at least 20 points in this win, and Bridges ended as the second-best performer behind Karl-Anthony Towns' 24-point, 15-rebound, six-assist performance. Bridges endured a rough start to the season but has been turning things around of late, putting up at least 20 points in each of his last three appearances.

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Held in check
Bridges closed with eight points (4-11 FG, 0-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, four assists and one block over 42 minutes during Sunday's 132-121 loss to the Pacers.
For the first time in nine outings, Bridges was held to single-digit points. It was certainly a night to forget, as Bridges missed all six of his three-point attempts. He's currently on pace to hit a career-low from beyond the arc with a 31.7 percent mark, but some positive regression should be on the horizon.

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Three swipes vs. Detroit
Bridges supplied 15 points (6-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals over 35 minutes during Friday's 128-98 win over the Pistons.
Bridges took a back seat to Jalen Brunson, OG Anunoby and Karl-Anthony Towns in the scoring category Friday, but Bridges showed off his defensive chops with a team-leading three steals. Bridges has logged two or more steals in each of his last three outings, and for the season he's averaging 17.6 points on 52.2 percent shooting, 3.8 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals over 36.6 minutes per game.

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Fills stat sheet in win Wednesday
Bridges produced 17 points (6-16 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, six assists, two blocks and two steals over 40 minutes during Wednesday's 116-107 win over Miami.
Bridges continues to struggle with his shot from deep, but his consistency, as well as his ability to make an impact in other categories, have prevented him from enduring a woeful start to his life as a Knick. Bridges is averaging 18.3 points, 4.0 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game in his first four appearances.

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Hits for 16 in team debut
Bridges registered 16 points (7-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 0-1 FT) and two assists in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 132-109 loss to the Celtics.
After a rough shooting performance in the first half, Bridges ended with a solid showing in his first game with the Knicks. The 28-year-old is expected to be one of the main scoring threats on a remade roster alongside Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns, and Bridges could return to the 20 PPG plateau he fell just short of last season with the Nets.

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Expected to suit up Friday
Bridges (rest) is expected to suit up and start in Friday's preseason finale against the Wizards, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.
Bridges was held out of Tuesday's game against the Hornets due to rest. The 28-year-old will likely operate under a minutes restriction Friday, and if that's the case, the club will take an extended look at Cameron Payne and Pacome Dadiet.
