The Golden State Warriors have been benefitting from the strong play of Will Richard this season, particularly since the month of November began. And in the end, his breakout could potentially create a situation where several of the Warriors' other rostered guards become expendable, and could be fodder for trades as we get closer to the February deadline.
Warriors fans have been taking note of the strong play of Richard since the start of the regular season. He has a combination of strong basketball IQ, steady performance under pressure, defensive presence and shooting touch. Many feel that he's already playing like a veteran in some ways in his first NBA season, and that's precisely the kind of contribution this team needs right now.
