Richardson is out for Thursday's game against the Jazz and will likely sit Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers as well, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Richardson did not play in Wednesday's game against the Nuggets, and it is now believed that he will not return to action before the Heat's current road trip is finished. That puts his soonest possible return date at Dec. 6 against the Knicks at home. In the meantime, look for Tyler Johnson and the finally-healthy Wayne Ellington, who scored 22 points and hit 5-of-9 threes against Denver, to see increased playing time in the Heat's backcourt.
