Warriors head coach Steve Kerr made just one change to his starting lineup, replacing Quinten Post with Richard. The smaller lineup may work better defensively, mainly since the Thunder employs only one big man in their current five (Chet Holmgren). Starting gives Richard a higher fantasy ceiling, but he is not a must-stream in this spot.

Richard has reached double figures in three straight games, which have coincided with Stephen Curry’s absence due to illness. The opportunities haven’t been consistent enough for the rookie to remain rostered in fantasy leagues, but he’s becoming a player who’s at least worthy of a look on nights when the Warriors aren’t at full strength. And another such day may be on the horizon, as Golden State begins Week 4 with a Tuesday/Wednesday back-to-back, and neither game will be nationally televised.

Making his first career start, Richard made the most of his opportunity. One night removed from picking up a DNP-CD in a win over the Suns, the second-round pick dropped a highly efficient 30 points while providing value in rebounds, assists and three-pointers. Richard should not be rostered in fantasy leagues, especially if Stephen Curry is back for Friday’s game against the Nuggets. However, his name should be filed away for the next time the Warriors decide to hold out a few of their vets.
