Celebrations after big-time buckets are commonplace in the NBA, and we have seen a lot of players develop unique celebrations throughout the league’s history. Mikal Bridges is one modern player that has a unique celebration, as he points three fingers whenever he scores a 3PT shot.
Recently, we saw center Karl-Anthony Towns do Mikal Bridges’ celebration during the Minnesota Timberwolves recent game against the Phoenix Suns. The Timberwolves ended up losing the game. Mikal Bridges took to Twitter to roast Towns, joking that he’s using too many fingers in the celebration.

There is no doubt that this is a hilarious situation. Karl-Anthony Towns is one of the best 3PT shooters in the league, so it is understandable why he did the 3PT shot celebration. However, his execution was just a little off, so Mikal Bridges saw the opportunity for a roast and ran with it.
As of right now, Mikal Bridges is averaging 26.8 PPG, 4.6 RPG, and 2.7 APG during his time with the Brooklyn Nets. If he can keep this up, he will be one of the top two-way stars in the league, and hopefully, his elite play will continue. Some people believed he was All-Star caliber with the Phoenix Suns, and they are being proven right as of now.
Mikal Bridges Has Scored 57 More Points In A Month For The Nets Than Ben Simmons Has In His Entire Tenure
Mikal Bridges is currently showing that he can be a No. 1 option on a team, and it is clear that getting moved to the Brooklyn Nets allowed him to blossom as a player. In fact, a recent stat shows just how elite Bridges has been with the Nets. It was previously revealed that Bridges scored more points in a month than his teammate Ben Simmons has during his entire tenure.
“Mikal Bridges has scored 348 points this month. Ben Simmons has scored 291 points as a Net,” wrote StatMuse on Twitter.
There is no doubt that this is an insane statistic, and it’ll be interesting to see if Mikal Bridges can continue scoring at this rate. His play seems relatively sustainable as of right now, and Bridges is showing a more diverse scoring arsenal than he did with the Phoenix Suns. The Brooklyn Nets have maintained a playoff position with him as the No. 1 option, and the playoffs will be the real test for Mikal Bridges.
