    Miles Bridges said he spent most of his rookie season thinking about highlight-reel plays.

    But the ultra-athletic 6-foot-6, 225-pound Charlotte Hornets forward, who was featured in the NBA All-Star Game dunk contest last season, said his mentality has changed in year two.

    "This year it's about doing anything to get the win," Bridges said. "(I'm) focusing my defensive assignment, trying to be aggressive and making plays in the clutch."

    Devonte Graham scored 29 points, Bridges hit a huge 3-pointer with 7.7 seconds left and the Hornets beat the Washington Wizards 114-107 on Tuesday night in a game that featured 20 lead changes. Terry Rozier scored 17 points, Bridges had 16, P.J. Washington added 15 and Cody Zeller and Bismack Biyombo both had double-doubles as Charlotte salvaged a 2/3 record on a five-game homestand.
