Pause.
I want to see that 44" vert!
Pause.
Is this the same guy?
yup. He's pretty much a journeyman now
Good locker room guy. He's a Spurs fan. Said that in multiple interviews. We also tried to get him last season as there were rumors of a Mills/Richardson trade, but it didn't happen.
He's basically an 80% Derrick White. Plays defense, can playmake, shoot 3s, midrange, get to the line, shoots efficient.

lose a ton of playmaking but i agree with everything else
He is not trash……not a star but more than serviceable!
Man Spurs just got more exciting to watch. Lonnie should hang out with this guy on how to finish dunks, instead of those double-pump acrobatic layups
I love the dunks, but he will have to stop standing and posing after them or Pop will yank him.
Pop will love his effort thus giving him some la ude . Josh is a player just not a star
He's a hustle guy?
He can and will defend. Hopefully he comes in and get after it!!
Defense can be contagious.
FWIW, FiveThirtyEight gives Richardson a rating of -2.4. White, by contrast, was +3.1.
He’s not a journeyman because he stinks
He’s a journeyman because he’s on an incredibly reasonable contract that made him a huge trade chip:
- He started every game his last two seasons with the Heat (and over four seasons until this year, started all but five games and played 33 mpg)
- He was part of the Jimmy Butler S&T. He was the asset the Sixers wanted or could pry away to salvage something
- Sixers swapped him for Seth Curry given they needed shooting badly considering their former PG can’t make anything outside the restricted area
He’s a perfectly acceptable rotation player. Shoots well enough from three (36-37% range) and rates decently as a defender. I’m not sure what the Spurs do with him - may keep him on ice and move him after the season, or they may actually like him? Who knows.
He's yet another decent role player that is competent on both sides of the court. I bet he'll start for the Spurs with Murray, KJ, McDermott and Poetl
If he loves Pop, then he’s going to work hard to stay on the team. I like Pop to really look at him as he has skills and explosiveness. I think he’s already ahead of Lonnie with how he finishes around the rim. I think our running game just got better with him.
The Spurs picked up two first rounders and didn’t necessarily wave the white flag on the season in the process. They aren’t outright tanking (I would appreciate a higher pick too) - they’ll be compe ive in games and hopefully continue losing tight ones.
This is who PATFO wish Lonnie became. Bye Lonnie.
I always liked him, reminds me of captain jack, and didn’t know he was a spurs fan even better
Awwww he’s like a rescue who hopes this is his forever home.
He’s 28, and nearly a replacement level player occupying roughly $12M in cap space next year. I’d be shocked if he were on the roster after 1 JUL 23. He could be moved as soon as this summer.
