Nick Richards's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Charlotte Hornets center Nick Richards (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's clash with the Pistons. A right ankle sprain could keep him sidelined for a fourth consecutive game. P.J. Washington has replaced him in the starting lineup. Washington had a big 20-point effort in the first game without Richards but has since produced just 21 points in the next two games. He's also not a great rebounder, which limits his fantasy appeal.

Charlotte Hornets center Nick Richards (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Richards sat out on Saturday and it appears he'll miss at least one more game due to a right ankle sprain. P.J. Washington figures to draw another start at the center position. He has been inconsistent lately with only one game in double-digit scoring over his last four games. There's still some streaming value there until Richards gets back to full health.

Charlotte Hornets center Nick Richards (ankle) is questionable ahead of Saturday's matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers. The 26-year-old didn't suit up for Friday's meeting with the San Antonio Spurs, and with Mark Williams (back) still unavailable, P.J. Washington moved into the starting lineup. Washington played well with the first five, amassing 20 points, six rebounds, and one steal while missing one of his four tries from behind the arc. At any rate, regardless of Washington's role, he's always worth considering for fantasy lineups. However, with LaMelo Ball (ankle) questionable, Washington could see more scoring opportunities. Nathan Mensah, who logged 20 minutes on Friday, should also continue to get more work without Richards, although he's not a reliable fantasy option.

Charlotte Hornets center Nick Richards (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Spurs after leaving their game on Wednesday before returning. The 26-year-old averages just under 30 minutes per game without Mark Williams this year and would be in line for a big role in a good matchup if he can suit up. Returning to the game after getting injured bodes well for his chances to play Friday, but the team could always choose to err on the side of caution and give him a day off to rest. If Richards cannot go, JT Thor would likely see more minutes on Friday as a result.
