Jase Richardson got his first taste of NBA action on Saturday night, and he didn’t disappoint.
The former Michigan State guard spent last season in East Lansing as a true freshman, dominated, and then got drafted in the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft, exceeding all expectations that may have been placed on him before the season.
Heck, there were some (yes, myself included) who thought that Kur Teng was going to have the biggest immediate impact out of the three 2024 class freshmen.
Richardson proved a lot of doubters wrong, and yet his stock still dropped during the draft process because of his size.
