Top Josh Richardson News

  • Heat's Josh Richardson: Notches five points

    Richardson closed Sunday's 119-110 loss to Indiana with five points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 24 minutes.

    Despite the absence of Jimmy Butler (ankle), Richardson hasn't been able to ramp up his fantasy production much. He's had a very slow start to the campaign by his standards, averaging 4.0 points, 1.7 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.9 three-pointers on 31.3 percent shooting from the field through seven contests.

  • Heat's Josh Richardson: Season-high performance in loss

    Richardson recorded 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and four steals over 21 minutes during Friday's 135-122 loss to the Nuggets.

    Richardson scored his first points of the season in his third appearance and set season-high marks in points, assists and steals during Friday's loss. Jimmy Butler (ankle) left the game early, and if he's forced to miss time, Richardson would likely have increased responsibilities, though he may still be on a minutes restriction after missing the start of the season due to a shoulder injury.

  • Heat's Josh Richardson: Makes season debut

    Richardson played 16 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 118-98 win over the Wizards, finishing with zero points (0-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and one assist.

    Richardson made his season debut Saturday after he missed the Heat's first three games with left heel inflammation before getting the green light to suit up in Monday's 106-98 win over the Pistons. He ultimately didn't play in that contest, then was ruled out for Wednesday's loss to the Knicks before he finally saw some action Saturday. Richardson ended up joining the Miami rotation as a replacement for Haywood Highsmith, who didn't check into the game until 2:11 remained in the fourth quarter, when the Heat held a 22-point lead.

    Richardson (heel) was able to practice Friday ahead of Saturday's matchup against the Hornets, Heat beat writer Adam Lichtenstein reports.

    Richardson missed the club's regular-season opener against Orlando due to a heel injury. The 32-year-old was limited before the season while rehabbing from a right shoulder surgery he underwent in March, though he was cleared from the shoulder injury before the heel injury popped up. If Richardson misses additional time, Duncan Robinson and Alec Burks are candidates to receive an uptick in playing time.

  • Heat's Josh Richardson: Picks up option

The veteran wing will look to earn a similar role for the Heat in the upcoming season.
