Miami Heat’s Erik Spoelstra Enjoyed His Time Coaching Josh Richardson


At one point, Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra thought guard Josh Richardson was going to become the team’s franchise player. 

It never happened after Richardson struggled in the No. 1 role in the 2018-19 season that ultimately led to him being packaged in the Jimmy Butler trade. Richardson is now with the San Antonio Spurs, his fourth team since leaving the Heat. 

Still, Spoelstra said he was grateful of the time spent coaching Richardson, who is averaging 10.2 points and 2.9 assists for the Spurs.
