Forward Miles Bridges, one of the top potential trade targets on the market, has informed the Charlotte Hornets he will not approve any trades and will remain with the team past Thursday's deadline, agent Rich Paul told ESPN.

Bridges has trade veto power as part of his one-year, $8 million deal. This decision will allow the Hornets to hold Bridges' Bird Rights into the summer, and he will become an unrestricted free agent.

The Hornets could then re-sign Bridges to a long-term deal or sign-and-trade him to another team.
