Richardson contributed six points (2-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five assists and four rebounds in 31 minutes Tuesday against the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
After a strong start to the year, Richardson has now shot below 36.5 percent from the field in six of his last seven games. While his shooting has faltered, Richardson has continued to be a volume scorer while maintaining his solid complimentary contributions, averaging 16.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.2 threes and 1.8 steals in his last five games. Hopefully, Richardson's efficiency will kick back up once Goran Dragic (knee) returns, but with Dragic without a timetable, owners may need to prepare to stomach some more rough shooting performances from Richardson.

Richardson produced 16 points (4-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four assists, and three rebounds in 39 minutes during Sunday's 102-100 victory over the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Richardson struggled from the field Sunday, making just 4-of-16 shot attempts. The continued absence of Goran Dragic (knee) is likely having an impact on Richardson's efficiency given he has the ball in his hands a lot more. The increased offensive responsibility has also resulted in the decline of Richardson's block numbers. Dragic still doesn't have an exact timeline on his return but until then, look for Richardson to continue to have some off-nights from the field.

Richardson collected 22 points (6-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 8-9 FT), eight rebounds, five steals and four assists across 36 minutes in Tuesday's 115-113 loss to the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
Richardson's five steals were easily his most on the season, but the defensive effort still wasn't enough to pull out a win. Despite leading the team in points, the lackluster three-point shooting leaves room for improvement and could make the difference between a win and a loss moving forward.

Richardson totaled 17 points (7-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block across 25 minutes before he was ejected with 6:40 remaining in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 113-97 loss to the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Richardson threw his shoe against the scoring table when he drew his fifth personal foul, then flung the shoe into the stands when coach Erik Spoelstra motioned him to the bench. Considering it was the first career ejection for Richardson and he didn't take his aggression out on the officials or any of the Lakers players, he'll likely avoid a suspension and should only be subjected to a fine from the league office. Expect any punishment against Richardson to be levied prior to Tuesday's game against the Nets, making it pertinent for fantasy managers to check on his status beforehand just to ensure he avoided a suspension.

Richardson scored 28 points (10-16 FG, 7-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT) while adding four rebounds, two assists and a steal in 41 minutes during Friday's 99-91 loss to the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
He led all scorers on the night, but unfortunately Richardson didn't get much help from his teammates, as no other Heat player managed more than 12 points. The 25-year-old has emerged as the focal point of Miami's offense this season, averaging career highs in points (20.8) and three-pointers (3.1) through 15 games.

Richardson scored 27 points (11-21 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) while adding eight rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 38 minutes during Monday's 120-115 overtime win over the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
It's the third time in the last four games Richardson has hit for 25 points or more. The fourth-year guard is on his way to a true breakout campaign -- his 21.4 PPG is almost nine points better than last year's mark, while his 3.1 three-pointers per game is nearly double -- and while the eventual return of Dion Waiters (ankle) could cut into his minutes, Richardson's performance so far should have cemented his spot as one of the focal points of the Heat's offense.

Richarson accounted for 32 points (10-18 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 6-6 FT), one rebound, three assists, two steals and one block in 32 minutes Saturday in Miami's loss to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Richardson reset his career-high with 32 points after doing so when he posted 31 points against Sacramento earlier this week. The fourth-year guard has been Miami's leading scorer in the 2018-19 season, and his fantasy value will continue to climb if the scoring proves to be consistent. Richardson's defensive prowess is well-known, and if he can solidify himself as Miami's number one scoring option he should prove to be useful in any league format.

Richardson scored 21 points (8-14 FG, 5-6 3Pt) while adding eight rebounds, an assist and a steal in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 110-87 win over the Knicks.
EDGE Analysis
It's the third time in four games Richardson's dropped 20-plus points, but his scoring has mostly come through volume rather than efficiency -- Wednesday's performance was the first time this season he's shot over 50 percent in a game. As the Heat's primary offensive threat from the outside, the 25-year-old has seen a big surge in his usage so far, but his role could return to normal once Dion Waiters (ankle) is ready to make his season debut.

Richardson tallied 25 points (9-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal across 29 minutes Wednesday in the Heat's 140-128 exhibition win over the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
After an underwhelming preseason debut Monday against the Magic, Richardson raised his game two days later, finishing second on the Heat in scoring behind Bam Adebayo. Richardson likely won't be tasked with handling as much of a scoring burden when Goran Dragic and Hassan Whiteside -- who both sat out Wednesday -- are in the lineup, but the wing offers a solid fantasy floor thanks to his all-around contributions.

Richardson (thigh) started at shooting guard and tallied five points (2-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 26 minutes in Monday's 90-89 exhibition win over the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
Richardson looked a little rusty in his preseason debut with four fouls and four turnovers, but his healthy minutes total suggests the Heat don't have much concern about the thigh injury that sidelined him for their first three exhibition tilts. The 25-year-old has been linked to trade discussions with the Timberwolves pertaining to Jimmy Butler, but whether he stays put in Miami or heads elsewhere, Richardson is likely to enjoy a sizable role and produce useful numbers across the board. He's particularly useful in the steals and blocks categories, where his combined total of 2.4 per game amounted to elite production from a wing player.
