Game-high 25 points in return
Richardson (undisclosed) finished with 25 points (10-15 FG, 3-5 3Pt,1-1 FT), two rebounds, four assists and three steals in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 99-92 Summer League win over the 76ers.
Analysis
Richardson was a bright spot in his return from a one-game absence for undisclosed reasons. The 2025 first-rounder is preparing for his second season with the Magic and is aiming to make a case for a reserve role in 2026-27 after hardly being part of the rotation as a rookie.

Won't play Sunday
Richardson (undisclosed) will miss Sunday's Las Vegas Summer League game against the Trail Blazers.
Analysis
Richardson will sit out the second leg of a Summer League back-to-back set, but he should return for Wednesday's meeting with the 76ers. TyTy Washington will draw the start in Richardson's absence Sunday, and there should be more minutes available for Keon Johnson.

Scores 15 points in win
Richardson finished with 15 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and six assists across 30 minutes in Saturday's 93-88 Summer League win over Miami.
Analysis
Richardson scored 15 points in Thursday's 86-74 loss to Charlotte. While he wasn't more productive Saturday, he shot the ball well by going 3-for-5 from behind the arc. The 20-year-old had a quiet rookie campaign in 2025-26, averaging 4.4 points, 1.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 0.4 steals over 10.9 minutes in 54 regular-season appearances. Richardson will need to play well this summer, though that still may not improve his chances of earning a more prominent role with the Magic in 2026-27.

Scores 15 points in SL Loss
Richardson finished with 15 points (6-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, four assists and two steals across 30 minutes in Thursday's 86-74 Summer League loss to the Hornets.
Analysis
Richardson is coming off an uneventful 2025-26 campaign in which he averaged only 4.4 points, 1.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 0.4 steals over 10.9 minutes in 54 regular-season appearances. Even with injuries to some of the starters, the 20-year-old wasn't able to take advantage and mostly served as a depth piece. While Richardson looked good to begin Summer League play, he's still not guaranteed to seize a consistent role in the rotation even if he continues to play well in Las Vegas.
