Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
After barely playing during his first two seasons in the NBA, Richards was able to carve out a meaningful role for himself during the 2022-23 campaign. In 18.7 minutes per night, he put up averages of 8.2 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.1 blocks, shooting 62.9 percent from the field and a respectable 74.9 percent from the line. Although Mark Williams is now firmly established as the starting center in Charlotte, Richards should serve as the primary backup. His role should replicate what he was able to do last season, putting him on the radar as a specialist target in slightly deeper formats. If Williams misses time at all during the season, Richards could make for a must-add player, even in 12-team leagues.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Drawing interest once again
Richards is a coveted center on the trade market, Michael Scotto of Hoopshype reports.
ANALYSIS
Richards is a very productive center when healthy, boasting averages of 11.2 points, 9.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 2.5 blocks through six regular-season games. He also has an appealing contract, as he's owed $5 million this season with a non-guaranteed $5 million for the 2025-26 season. Although teams will try to pry him away from Charlotte, the Hornets may be hesitant to do so with so many question marks surrounding the health of Mark Williams, who remains sidelined by a foot issue.
