Richardson suffered from a partially torn MCL in his right knee, Shams Charania of The Vertical reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fresh off losing Dwyane Wade in free agency, Richardson was set to take over the starting shooting guard duties in Miami. This injury may put that on hold for the young sharpshooter out of Tennessee, but the timetable for his return will be based on how well rehab goes. Should Richardson have to miss any time, Tyler Johnson will likely start in his place with Wayne Ellington getting some added minutes on the court as well.
