Nick Richards), born on November 29, 1997 in Kingston, Jamaica, is an American professional basketball player who serves as a center.
In college, he studied at the University of Kentucky (junior season) and averaged 14 points, 7.8 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game, and declared his participation in the 2020 NBA draft.
Selected by the New Orleans Pelicans with the 42nd pick in the first round of the 2020 NBA Draft, and then traded to the Charlotte Hornets, Richards is a center whose offense mainly focuses on dunks, and most of his points are through eating cakes Done, but occasionally he can get a few hooks and jumpers from outside the paint. As far as offense is too dependent on his right hand, the ability to handle the ball with the left hand needs to be improved, the technique is not delicate enough, and the ability to handle the ball outside the penalty area also needs to be developed.
