How many albums has Miles Bridges released and what are they called?
Miles Bridges has two albums under the rap name RTB MB. His first album is called “Up the Score” and consists of 13 tracks. He released this in 2020 and followed it up with another album in 2021. His second album is called “Halftime” and has 12 tracks.

Aside from these two albums, Bridges also has numerous singles and EPs under the RTB MB name. He has also featured in tracks by other rappers.

According to Spotify, his top track is “Intro” from the “Up the Score” album. His track “Piccolo” is ranked third from the same album, while “Act Different” and “AF1” from his album “Halftime” rank second and fourth, respectively.

Spotify’s data also shows that RTB MB has 379,912 monthly listeners.

Will Miles Bridges be traded this season?
Bridges and the Charlotte Hornets agreed to a three-year, $75 million extension in July. However, prior to this extension, Bridges was the subject of numerous trade rumors.

The Hornets extending his contract could be taken as a sign that they want to keep him longer, or it could have been simply a move to keep him on the team longer while the front office looks for a suitable trade partner. After all, there’s no reason to let him walk away from the team without getting anything in return.

Bridges is in his mid-20s and is likely just entering his prime. He posted the best numbers of his career in 2023-24 with 21.0 points and 7.3 rebounds per game.

His numbers make him an ideal fit for the Hornets’ lineup and his age makes him perfect for the franchise’s core. However, these things also make him a prime trade candidate.

There may be no reason for the Hornets to keep Bridges on the team if they receive a truly enticing offer.
