Josh Richardson 2016-17 Season Rundown

Season Rundown:

Although Josh Richardson sustained a few injuries in his second season, the guard still managed to play 53 games, including 34 starts. Early on, Richardson worked hard to regain his rhythm after missing all of training camp and the first four games of the year due to a sprained right MCL. That said, the 23-year-old started to look like himself in late December, as he averaged 20.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 2.0 steals per contest over a three-game stretch from Dec. 27 – Dec. 30. Just when things were starting to look up, Richardson badly sprained his left foot in early January and missed 19 straight games.
