Bridges was subject to a warrant and citation over allegations of breaching a protective order, child abuse and property damage. In February 2024, prosecutors dropped all three counts, finding that a conviction could not be secured, particularly because of the complainant's conflicting and changing statements.

Following its own investigation, the NBA suspended Bridges for 30 games without pay in connection with the 2022 incident. As he had not signed a contract and had missed the entire 2022–2023 season, the league considered 20 games already served; the remaining 10 were to be served upon his return.
