Will Richard Out Indefinitely With UCL Tear In Thumb

Will Richard has been diagnosed with a UCL tear in his left thumb, Anthony Slater reports for ESPN (via Twitter). He will likely miss an extended period for the Warriors due to the injury.

After a strong rookie season, Richard has been a solid depth piece for Golden State this year, playing 17.2 minutes per game and averaging 5.1 points on 42.9% shooting from three.

While the Warriors have yet to reveal a timeline for the injury, players such as John Konchar and Matisse Thybulle have suffered similar injuries and missed between three and six weeks.

Richard joins Moses Moody, Jimmy Butler, and Kristaps Porzingis on the Warriors’ injury report.
