Unbelievable Chemistry: Which 2025 NBA Draft Picks Are Already Changing Their Teams Forever?
So why was he available for the Magic to select with the 25th pick? Because he inherited his father’s basketball skills but not his height.
Jason Richardson was listed at 6-foot-6, but Jase measured at under 6-1 without shoes. He does have a 6-6 wingspan, but teams were clearly concerned about his viability as an undersized combo guard.
But if any team is equipped to deal with Richardson’s potential size issues, it’s the Magic. They’re an elite defensive team with a 6-7 guard in Black as one of the other bench options. If Richardson reaches his potential offensively, the Magic will gladly take the tradeoff of having to cover for him on defense.
