Upgraded to available
Richardson (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the 76ers.
Analyse
Richardson is bothered by a sore left ankle, but he's still healthy enough to play Friday. With Jalen Suggs (knee) sidelined, the expectation is that Richardson and Tyus Jones will share the minutes as the backup point guards behind Anthony Black.

Iffy for Friday
Richardson is questionable for Friday's game against the 76ers with left ankle soreness.
Analyse
Richardson wasn't on the injury report heading into the Magic's most recent game Wednesday against the Nets, but the sore ankle likely explains why he didn't see any minutes in the 104-103 win. He had received playing time in each of the Magic's prior 12 contests, averaging 8.8 points, 1.9 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.2 three-pointers in 17.7 minutes.

Nearly leads late comeback
Richardson recorded 20 points (7-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and three assists over 26 minutes during the Magic's 120-112 loss to the Wizards on Tuesday.
Analyse
Richardson saw most of his playing time in the second half when the game seemed out of reach for the Magic, but the rookie first-rounder ended up leading the team in scoring while contributing to Orlando's late comeback attempt. Richardson has seen extended playing time off the bench in back-to-back games, due in part to the absence of Jalen Suggs (knee). More strong play like Tuesday could earn Richardson more consistent minutes moving forward.

Sees 27 minutes in win
Richardson closed with 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound and four assists over 27 minutes during Sunday's 135-127 victory over the Pacers.
Analyse
This was a solid showing for Richardson, as he took advantage of some extra minutes with Jalen Suggs sidelined by an MCL contusion. If Suggs continues to miss time, which wouldn't be a surprise, Richardson could be a name to monitor in deeper formats.
