I don't think anybody expected him to come in and average 20 ppg. He had some rough spots but his year here was good IMO.
I would guess he was probably always destined by the heat to be placed on their D League team with random call ups through the year like stokes from last season.
That might happen, but I don't think it's a foregone conclusion. I think Richardson is more ready to contribute immediately (and is just a better NBA player overall) than Stokes was.
Not a crack on Josh.....the heat has a lot of veteran players ahead of him at the positions he is likely to play...you either have him on the roster playing very limited minutes or retain his rights and let him develop playing big minutes in the developmental league.
