Richardson registered 18 points (5-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes during Saturday's 107-103 victory over the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Back in the starting five after coming off the bench the last two games, Richardson finished second on the Spurs in scoring and dropped at least 15 points for the fourth straight contest. The 28-year-old wing has emerged as a solid offensive option for San Antonio as the team makes a late push for a spot in the play-in tournament, averaging 13.9 points, 3.6 boards, 2.1 assists, 2.1 threes and 1.0 steals over his last nine games.

EDGE Analysis
Richardson sat out Friday's loss to the Pelicans and was questionable for Sunday with calf soreness, but he's ready to take the court at Golden State. He's started in his last four appearances and should continue to have an expanded role down the stretch with Doug McDermott (ankle) out for the year.

Richardson amassed 17 points (6-15 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 122-120 victory over Oklahoma City.
EDGE Analysis
Richardson thrived as a member of the starting lineup Wednesday, helping the Spurs to a narrow victory. With news coming out earlier in the day that Doug McDermott would be sidelined for the remainder of the season, it appears Richardson has first dibs on the vacant starting spot. This is actually a nice opportunity for Richardson to rediscover the form he showed during his days with the Heat. The Spurs are not pushing for the playoffs and so the pressure to succeed should be minimized when compared to previous seasons. For now, pick him up and see where this takes us.

Richardson recorded 11 points (3-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes during Friday's 104-102 win over the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Richardson moved into the starting lineup Friday, delivering a well-balanced performance. Since arriving in San Antonio, Richardson's playing time has varied wildly, making him a hard player to project with any certainty. In spite of his ability to chip in across multiple categories, fantasy managers will likely only want to stream him in games in which injuries to teammates result in increased run.

Richardson will come off the bench Wednesday against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Richardson posted 18 points (6-12 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists over 30 minutes in a spot start Monday but will return to the bench with Devin Vassell (groin) back in the lineup. Richardson should still be involved as a reserve with Romeo Langford (hamstring) and Joshua Primo (illness) unavailable.

Richardson logged 18 points (6-12 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists over 30 minutes during Monday's 117-110 victory over the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Richardson drew the start due to Devin Vassell's (groin) absence and made the most of his opportunity. A lack of consistent court time limits Richardson's fantasy value, and only absences like Vassell's make him relevant as a streaming option.
