For what it’s worth, Gambo said that trade was discussed but will not be happening.

Since Richards is the only backup who could fill in for Williams as starter if he's hurt at this point I'm not trading him for a guard who'd only play garbage time.

Y'all still think Richards isn't our worst rotation player? He is and it isn't close. There's a reason Oso gets twice the minutes. Mobility and IQ. Ok, that's 2 reasons.

Total for the season, the Suns are -55 with Richards on the floor. That's about -2.3 in 9.4 minutes each game. He has started twice, going -13 and -17. The Suns are just better when he isn't on the court. No hate for the guy, but I'd trade him for a pick. You aren't getting more than that for him.

Strongly agree. I'd actually just trade him for a second rounder outright so we can get below the luxury tax and not have to deal with repeater penalties.
