Breaking down the game of Billy Richmond III—highlighting how and where he makes an impact right now, as well as the areas he needs to improve and get more composed in.

Competitive, bunny-like hops, aggressive straight-line driver, catch-and-shoot threat, high motor.

But he plays a step too fast on both ends—resulting in self-inflicted turnovers, loose shot attempts, and off-balanced defensive stances.

If he can get the game to slow down for him, Richmond will unlock his versatile toolbox and become the type of player who impacts the game positively even without scoring. He’ll have another year at Arkansas to show he can rein it in a touch, while still being the attacking two-way wing he’s been.
