“I’m so used to playing a lot so — even though I’m still playing a lot. But sometimes I might get subbed out and I’m looking like, ‘What?’ So I know something’s right [with my body playing fewer minutes],” Bridges said. “Because I freak out sometimes, like, ‘You’re getting me [out]?’ But then I’ll sit down and come back in after a couple minutes or something. So it’s something to get used to. “But that’s also about building relationship with my coaches and stuff. As a player, it’s tough. You might miss a couple shots, you might mess up defensively, and you’re prepping yourself to make the next play and you might get subbed out and you’ll be questioning yourself, like coach does not [like] this and that. But sometimes you need a break, you know? So I think that’s just building your relationship with the coach and building that trust to know, all right, if I’m thinking I’m struggling or I’m thinking this and that. And it’s just a breather. That’s building the communication and that relationship comes a long way.”
