With no real stars on the Heat roster and a plethora of injuries before the season started, there had to be someone to step up and score for the Heat and Josh Richardson is that player.

During the start of the season, Justice Winslow, James Johnson and Dion Waiters were out and with nobody to share the ball with except Dragic and Whiteside, Richardson stepped up. He is having a breakout season, both fantasy wise as well as his own career wise.

He is averaging almost 21 points per game, which is 10 points higher than his career average. He also has the highest usage on the team for now, with Dragic out for a bit. Richardson is also averaging 4.2 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game as well. He is mostly a scorer and chips in with valuable secondary stats as well. He is a great pick up for the game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
