A Los Angeles Police Department spokeswoman told The Associated Press that Bridges was arrested in LA on Wednesday.
The Hornets did not respond to the news of Bridges' arrest.
Bridges is accused of domestic violence.
Bridges is set to become a restricted free agent and could get a max contract in the coming weeks. On the eve of NBA free agency teams can speak with free agents.
The four-year NBA veteran averaged career highs with 20.2 points and seven rebound last season, while playing with All-Star point guard LaMelo Ball.
Bridges is a musician who goes by the name RTB MB.
The Hornets have a chance to match any offer sheet made by another team if they extend Bridges a qualification offer.
The general manager of the Hornets said that they loved Miles. He's going to be brought back. He has been great for the franchise and I think he will get better with his work ethic.
After the season, Bridges said he wanted to return to the Hornets, but he recently changed his bio to say it was him.
