Past_Notes | 6-17-15 Indiana State Team Camp.Richardson has seemingly bought into being a post player now. He needs to be more patient with the ball in the post. Right now, when he catches the ball, he rushes into either making a move or passing the ball out. He needs to read the defense before deciding to do either of those things. Tremendous size and strength, Richardson moves pretty well in the post although he is not a leaper. 1-21-15 vs. Pike. 2 points, 5 rebounds, 2 turnovers, 4 fouls. Had 3 straight fouls in 20 seconds to start the 2nd half. Needs to become more fluid on the offensive end. He has the build and size to play D1. Skill set isn't there yet as he isn't a big-time athlete. 12-12-14 vs. North Central. 7 points, 1 rebound, 1 turnover. Limited role but Richardson played well...finished at the basket and showed a smooth shot from the free-throw line. 10-5-14 Metro Indy Fall League Richardson has grown a couple inches in the last year. He is now 6-8, 215 pounds. He will be a fanastic post presence for Carmel this season. He moves well for his size. He can still be a stretch four option as he can put the ball on the floor. Richardson has good hands, rebounds well. D2 to Mid Major prospect. good size and frame/build for his age. He is a legit 6-5, possibly 6-6. Richardson is a bit of a tweener right now. He's definitely best in the paint right now. He does have some perimeter skills, but lacks the athleticism right now to be a pure perimeter player. He is a tough kid that will compete for minutes at Carmel this season. |
