EDGE Analysis

Richardson rejoined his teammates after an extended layoff due to COVID-19 protocols, sliding straight into the starting lineup. Unfortunately, that's where the good news ended for Richardson, who failed to perform at an adequate level. He has been somewhat underwhelming this season, averaging 12.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.8 three-pointers, 1.4 assists and 0.9 steals in 31.6 minutes per game. Richardson still has some usefulness in 12-team leagues for fantasy managers looking for aid in the categories he's strongest in, but he doesn't look like a universal must-roster player.
