EDGE Analysis

Richardson still remains without a designated return date, but the 23-year-old appears to be nearing a return with this latest news regarding his full participation in practice. Ultimately, he'll likely sit out for at least another few games, but look for Richardson to be available for a return within the next week or two. Once healthy, he'll compete for minutes at shooting guard with the likes of Dion Waiters and Tyler Johnson.
