Richards contributed six points (3-3 FG), six rebounds and one steal in 21 minutes during Wednesday's 140-109 loss to Oklahoma City.

Suns' Nick Richards: Posts career-high 19 rebounds
Richards racked up 20 points (7-12 FG, 6-7 FT), 19 rebounds, one assist and one block in 34 minutes during Saturday's 119-109 victory over Washington.
Richards' addition to the roster is paying off, and he's proven to be a much better option than Jusuf Nurkic and Mason Plumlee, Based on his initial four-game run, the Suns could be compelled to find a suitor for one of their big men before the trade deadline. Richard's cemented his spot with the first unit in short order and warrants serious fantasy consideration moving forward.

Suns' Nick Richards: Struggles in start
Richards finished Monday's 118-92 loss to Cleveland with four points (2-4 FG), four rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 22 minutes.
After erupting in his debut against the Pistons on Saturday with 21 points (7-8 FG, 7-9 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 29 minutes, Richards was inserted into the starting lineup for Monday. He wasn't able to replicate his success, however, as Cleveland's frontcourt got the best of him. Despite this dud, Richards is likely to remain with the starters for the foreseeable future.

Suns' Nick Richards: Big double-double in team debut
Richards totaled 21 points (7-8 FG, 7-9 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 29 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 125-121 win over the Pistons.
While he didn't get the start in his Suns debut, Richards saw a starter's workload, as Mason Plumlee was on the court for only 13 minutes. Richards also made exactly the kind of impact Phoenix was hoping for when it acquired him from Charlotte, as the 27-year-old center recorded his sixth double-double of the season. The rest of the Suns' second unit managed just 13 points total and doesn't have a go-to scoring option, so Richards should be productive even if he stays on the bench, but a shift to the starting five seems inevitable once he gets more familiar with his new surroundings.

Suns' Nick Richards: Set to make team debut Saturday
Richards (recently traded) is not listed on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Pistons.
It sets the stage for Richards to make his Suns debut after being traded by the Hornets on Wednesday. Although Phoenix could be preparing to have Richards start once he gets acclimated to the system, it's unclear what role he'll play immediately with his new team. In any event, the 27-year-old big man has averaged 11.3 points, 10.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.7 blocks in 27.2 minutes over nine games as a starter this season, and his presence likely spells bad news for the playing time of veteran Mason Plumlee.
