The fortieth pick in the 2015 NBA Draft, Josh Richardson turned a late selection into a career spanning nearly a decade at the highest level. This exceptional longevity is rooted in a rare versatility, forged during his high school years when he played point guard before transitioning into a versatile shooting guard/small forward at the University of Tennessee.
