2020 Draft Profile - Nick Richards
Jeremy Woo - Sept. 16th: "He’s a good athlete and solid rim protector who has figured out how to impact games as a finisher without needing his number called. Most scouts still question whether his feel is good enough to succeed in the NBA, and he’s not elite in any one area. "NBA Draft Room - July 6th: "He’s a springy 6-11 player with good length and nice mobility. He knows his role as a shot blocker and rebounder and seems to take pride in being a big man and doesn’t try to do too much."
HashTag Basketball - July 1st: "He isn't particularly skilled, but he is a big body with good athleticism. Richards' best attribute is his shot-blocking abilities. He has excellent timing and does a nice job of disrupting shots around the rim. "
NBA Draft Room - May 26th: "Richards has all the tools and is just scratching the surface of his potential but is very raw. Has upside but could take some time to develop."
Jeremy Woo - SI - May 6th: "He’s a good athlete and solid rim protector who has figured out how to impact games as a finisher without needing his number called, although most scouts still question whether his feel is good enough to succeed in the NBA. It’s likely Richards ends up in the G League next season, but if his trajectory continues, there’s an outside chance he can work himself into an end-of-bench center."
NBA Draft Room - July 27th: "Richards has all the tools and is just scratching the surface of his potential but is very raw and hasn't progressed as we expected. Has upside but could take a long time to develop."
