After missing 14 games, Richards returned three games ago and started the last two, playing 30 and 24 minutes. Against Philadelphia, he put up 22 points, 14 rebounds, two assists, a steal and a block. Unfortunately, during Thursday’s game, he stepped on Cody Martin’s foot in the third quarter, suffering a sprained ankle. He did remain in the game but is questionable for Saturday’s contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
With Grant Williams done for the season and Mark Williams only receiving nine and 11 minutes in the last two games, even if Williams sees an uptick in playing time, Moussa Diabate would likely be the biggest beneficiary if Richards is unable to play.
