JASON RICHARDS was the sophomore starting point guard for his college team when he decided to ride along with an assistant coach to go and see a recruit play a high school game.
It was a pretty mature move for Richards, as the player they were going to scout was also a point guard, with a pretty big reputation. There were two ways Richards could have looked at the recruit. One, he could have seen someone who was going to come in and threaten his job. Or he could have seen a talent that would have helped the team improve.
