EDGE Analysis

In Richardson's third game back from a knee injury, his minutes continued to rise, having played 12 in the first and 25 in the second. He still played fewer minutes than Dion Waiters and Tyler Johnson, who played 36 and 32, respectively. The three had extra time to share amongst themselves, as Goran Dragic left the game in the third quarter after spraining his ankle. Of the three, Richardson was the most efficient shooter, despite his limited contributions in supplementary categories. If Dragic misses time, it will open a door for Richardson to continue increasing his role in the rotation.
