Richardson is listed as a 6-foot-1 guard from Friendswood, Texas. He is ranked as the No. 25 point guard and No. 104 prospect overall, per 247Sports Composite Rankings. The 2027 prospect is listed as a four-star talent.

During his sophomore season at the high school level, Richardson was productive on both ends of the court. He averaged 14.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 2.2 steals per game. He also shot 43% from the floor and 73% from the free throw line.

Richardson is a skilled ball-handler and passer. He's showcased great vision, often getting the ball to his teammates in open spots or luring the defense away to create openings for others. He has excellent precision and gets the ball to teammates in great scoring position.

The Texas guard is also excellent at grabbing the ball off the rim and pushing into transition. He can drive all the way to the basket, kick it ahead for a layup or find someone for an easy lob at the rim. His style fits well into Purdue's tempo-pushing style.

Richardson is now one of five point guards in the 2027 class Purdue has offered. The Boilermakers have also expressed interest in Kevin Savage, Jason Gardner Jr., Reese Alston, and Jaxson Davis. Purdue has offered a total of seven players in that cycle thus far.
