Josh Richardson Latest News
Parting ways with Utah
The Jazz are waiving Richardson (heel) on Thursday, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. Richardson was traded from Miami to Detroit before being re-routed to Utah ahead of the NBA trade deadline. However, the veteran guard will now become a free agent and could join a new team to add quality perimeter defense and a second playmaker.
Traded to Utah
Richardson (heel) will be rerouted to the Jazz as part of the Jimmy Butler trade, according to NBA reporter Jake Fischer. Richardson was initially sent from Miami to Detroit, only to be dealt to Utah less than 24 hours later. Richardson, who is still sidelined by a troublesome heel issue, is unlikely to be in Utah's long-term plans as they are in the early stages of a rebuild.
Traded to Detroit
Richardson (heel) was traded to the Pistons on Wednesday as part of the massive blockbuster trade involving Jimmy Butler landing with the Warriors, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. Richardson was part of the deal that also sent Lindy Waters from Golden State to Detroit. Even though Richardson might make an impact once healthy, the 31-year-old guard has missed 35 straight games with right heel inflammation, and it's unclear when he'll return to the floor for his new team in Detroit.
Remains out for Miami
Richardson (heel) won't play Tuesday against the Bulls, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports. Richardson has been sidelined since Nov. 18, and there's been no indication that he will return during this road trip. The Heat return home next Monday to play the Celtics.
Still out for Saturday
Richardson (heel) has been ruled out for Saturday's matchup versus the Spurs, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Richardson hasn't suited up since Nov. 18 due to a right heel injury, and his next chance to return will come Tuesday against Chicago. However, the veteran guard is unlikely to crack the rotation whenever he makes his return.
Remains out for Wednesday
Richardson (heel) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Richardson hasn't played since Nov. 18 while he deals with a right heel injury. The veteran guard can be considered week-to-week until the team provides a clear timetable for his return.
Remains out for Monday
Richardson (heel) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Magic. Richardson hasn't played since Nov. 18 while he deals with right heel inflammation, though he is expected to begin ramping up for a return after recent imaging on his heel came back negative. Even if he is eventually cleared to return this season, the 31-year-old's presence shouldn't cause any major waves in the rotation.
Remaining sidelined
Richardson (heel) is out for Saturday's game versus the Nets, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports. Richardson hasn't played since Nov. 18 due to right heel inflammation. While the veteran guard is expected to ramp up toward a return soon, he can be considered week-to-week until Miami offers an official update.
Out again Thursday
Richardson (heel) won't play Thursday against the Bucks. Richardson has been sidelined since Nov. 18 due to inflammation in his right heel. His recent MRI didn't reveal any significant damage, but it's unclear when he'll be able to return.
