"Keith has very long arms and can run the floor extremely well. He is versatile,
athletic, and has as much of, if not more, ability than the professional players I have coached and seen first hand through
my coaching and scouting career" January 2003
"Keith is a very very very good player that performs additional individual
trainings along with the scheduled team trainings in order to work on his few weaknesses and to perfect his strengths on the
court. He also has a great character and get along well with his teammates and supporters of the teams especially while showing
kids and young adults about basketball during basketball camps" January

"Keith Bridges is an extremely complete athlete; highly reliable internal
and external shooting out to 8-9 meters! Also able to play with back to the basket in the post making big presence in rebounding
and scoring with post moves and defense" January 2003
JEAN PIERRE CIESIELSKI: personal contact European French Correspondent to Court-Vision Scouting responsible for player news all over France.
"Keith was one of the best all around players in the division
in France and with his abilities can play at much higher level with success for both the team and the team supporters" January 2003
"Having coached Keith in Albany was an experience I will never forget. Just when you thought you have
seen him do something you may never see again he does something even more spectacular to top it. Keith literally does
everything well on offense and defense and can play all positions on the court. He is a constant consistent player throughout
the game and he is at his best when it is crunch time. He is also a good instructor of the game with other players.
While in Albany he gave a few techniques to one local young talent, Lavor Postell now in the NBA, to assist in becoming a complete player " March
2003
"Keith played for my brother at Albany State and the first time I saw him
play was in the conference championship game where at the conclusion he won the slam dunk and three point contest in the same
night. During the games was the first time in a long time I had seen such a total complete player with Keith's atleticism,
grace, and versatility and I knew then he had a future in the pros as long as he keeps working hard."
"One of the nicknames my brother Oliver given to Keith was "All World"
and he has the potential to be just that. Has a knowledge for the game and a mental and physical toughness that allows
him to have more of an upside to his game. He also has nice hang time moves and turn around fade away jump shots like that
simular to Michael Jordan" January 2003
"Keith Bridges is a very good all around player that
does everything well. He has a very dangerous jump shot with accurate mid range shooting and also well beyond the
NBA distance. He posses the heart, knowledge, and abilities of an NBA prototype player but is lacking in the physique
to play an NBA 82 game season but can be very effective during the shorter overseas season in high levels of play." December 2002
Former assistant coach of Central West Virginia
"Keith is an extremely versatile athletic player that can take over a game
on offense and defense. I helped in the development of Tamar Slay of the NJ Nets, Curtis Staples, and Gene Nabors of West Virginia and I see a lot of their qualities in Keith." January

MICHAEL STINNET: personal contact Director of the Kentucky Pro AM Tournament
"Keith Bridges is a very good player that ejoys the challenges that playing
basketball around the world can bring. Randy Embry (NBA Miami Heat Scout) and I discussed Keith during his play during the
tournament and we both agreed he is a diamond in the rough that can highly contribute on any level he plays in Europe
and even in the USA" January 2003
DAVID ARCHER: personal contact Commisioner of the Southeast Basketball League in Atlanta Georgia held during the summer.
"In Atlanta Keith showed he has the abilities to play at any positon and
accepts the challenge. Every time I have seen him play he has become better and better throughout his time playing overseas."
