Richardson will not start Friday against the Clippers, according to Calkins Media. Richardson started and played 25 minutes in Philadelphia's last game Wednesday, but he will be replaced in the lineup for Friday's game by Robert Covington.

Richardson will return to the starting lineup Wednesday after resting Sunday, Max Rappoport of Sixers.com reports. Richardson was given the night off Sunday after taking part in each of the team's five previous games. He'll return to the starting five at shooting guard, pushing Robert Covington back to the bench.

Richardson (rest) will not play in Tuesday's game against the Kings, Max Rappaport of Sixers.com reports. Richardson isn't playing in both games of back-to-backs this season, and the Sixers have elected to save him for Wednesday's matchup with the Nuggets. Robert Covington will start in Richardson's place Tuesday night.

Richardson (rest) is starting Saturday against the Nets, the Bucks County Courier Times reports. Richardson followed protocol and sat out the front end of a back-to-back set Friday against the Kings, meaning his return was expected Saturday. In eight nods this season, he's averaging 10.6 points (on 35 percent shooting), four rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.9 three-pointers, and one steal in 25 minutes.

Richardson will sit out Friday's game, Sixers.com's Max Rappaport reports. He will continue to rest one game of each back-to-back, but should be back in the lineup Saturday. Richardson filled it up for 29 points last week, so there is some upside here, but that is by far his best game of late.

Richardson (knee) logged 19 minutes Wednesday against the Bulls and contributed four points (2-9 FG, 0-6 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, and two steals. Richardson has had his ups and downs over the past few weeks, but his inconsistency has been frustrating. He's averaging 10.6 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 1.9 three-pointers made in eight games this season, just enough to make him worth a spot in 16-man leagues. Still, he'll rest the occasional game, so owners shouldn't rush to pick him up unless they're extremely desperate for threes.

Richardson (knee) will not play Saturday against the Hawks. Richardson played 27 minutes in Friday's loss to Utah, so he'll be held out, as expected, on the second night of the back-to-back set. Robert Covington enters the starting lineup in his place.

Richardson had 29 points (8-19 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 9-9 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal in 36 minutes in Wednesday's overtime loss against the Thunder. He sat out Monday's loss to the Raptors, but showed up ready to play against Oklahoma City. He's played in six games this season and this was by far his best. He can fill it up, and if he's healthy he will get every chance to do just that for the 76ers.

SOMETHINGWRONGWITHTHISLINK Richardson will return to action after sitting out Philadelphia's last game Monday. He tallied double-digit points in three games in a row prior to Monday's contest.

Richardson (knee) will not play Monday against the Raptors, Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Richardson, who recently returned from a two-year absence, will be held out on the second night of a back-to-back after playing 26 minutes against the Pacers on Sunday. With Robert Covington also out, it's unclear who will get the call at shooting guard, but JaKarr Sampson and Robert Covington are the two most likely candidates. Barring a setback, expect Richardson to be back in the mix Wednesday.
