Richards is a absolute mismatch at times on the floor with his toughness. Richards just 15 years plays the game very mature for his age. Richards shows great strength and competitive edge on the floor. Richards is a great glue guy for this Upward Stars SE 3SSB Southeast 2022 team and does whatever he needs to for his team to win.
