Maybe if he gets closer to 22 feet he’d be 43% lol

Haha, 37% I wish there were advanced stats on those numbers because I'd love to see what the %s are as he got closer to the line. HS stats are deceiving though because only god knows what kind of defense people were playing against him, if any...
 
This kid looks like he has a chance to be a player. For now of the '19 guys I like Richmond but I like the fact they have multiple guards interested good spot to be. Add in the transfer along with what will already be here we are in nice shape.

Richmond is 2020

Brooklyn SG gets Live Period boost

Kadary Richmond ‘19, a shooting guard from South Shore (NY) has seen a huge boost in his recruitment as of late.
nychoops.rivals.com nychoops.rivals.com
Richmond isn’t in any hurry to rush a decision and shut down the rumors that he could possibly reclass into 2019 and go straight to college.

“No,” he said when asked if he was considering reclassifying to 2019. “My plan is to go 2020 to prepare myself to have an impact to any school I go to as a freshman.”

His AAU coach uttered the same tune when asked about the possibility of reclassification.

"That's not the plan," Pastore said. "I do know the plan is for him to be in 2020. I do know he's telling people that he's going to be in the class of 2020."

I only heard of him a week ago when his name popped up here and was wondering why we're recruiting him. It's just highlight video stuff but the recent stuff on him makes him look intriguing. What I like, he is a really deceptive player. He can dance with the ball and gets where he wants all over the court, shows really good vision and sneaky finishing ability. Best asset is he looks to be a good shooter who can hit from anywhere. What I don't like, he's incredibly skinny (as is our whole team,) knee injury, and he's not a great athlete but that should get better with more time removed from the injury. He's got more shake and confidence to his game than most guys we've had recently.

I would be happy with him, Cole or Langford and think it could shake out by next month.

"gets where he wants all over the court" is a skill UConn has been sorely lacking from its guards and wings.

Not enough players who can move their defender to where the offense wants the defender moved.

If a player can't move a defender with the dribble it decreases the defense's need to switch and rotate and allows defenses to lock down offensive flow.

This kid thinks he's steph curry. He's skinny but must have good raw strength to be hitting those bombs... Going to need to learn to dribble below his waist. Intriguing prospect.

Bouknight and Gaffney are gonna fix this issue also. Vital Polley Wilson and B Adams cannot break down their defenders very well and that has killed us

Fwiw--jalen suggs is a consensus top 10 pg. And also a 4* football qb recruit. Insane athlete. No shame being a spot behind him!

Tyrell Suggs cousin. Kid has already led his basketball team to 3 state championships and his football team to another. Kid is a rare breed just a natural born leader and athlete he may actually play both sports in college. I think he ultimately goes pro in basketball though.

If he has half a brain he'll play basketball exclusively. Longer career, more money, better chance of making it if he's a QB--not a freak enough athlete to be a corner or RB

I hope we land him. I’d prefer him over RJ because we need able bodies this year. We still need a big either way imo.

Between the two, I gotta go with RJ.

Yes, I know Cole can't play next season, but between Vital, AG, Gaffney, Bouknight and Adams, there's not much time for Bones next season anyways.

Thinking ahead to 2020, both Vital and likely Gilbert are gone and you bring in a guy like Cole who averaged 21.5/4.1/6.4 at Howard and BOOM you get a guy for two years who is guaranteed to play big backcourt minutes.

You don't get that guarantee from Bones.
