In a May 2025 interview with ESPN, Bridges said that he spent the offseason with his Lab by his side, instead of traveling.
“A lot of people get on me because I don’t travel that much, but there’s reasons why. First off, I hate traveling a lot, and second, I hate leaving my dog through the season,” said the 29-year-old NBA star.
Bridges isn’t the only Knicks player who is a devoted dog dad. For instance, Jalen Brunson has two doodles named Stevie and Kona, Jeremy Sochan owns a sweet pit bull, Mitchell Robinson has dogs in the double digits, and Trey Jemison III owns a poodle mix.
