About this model: Net Impact can't measure floor spacing, help defense rotations, or playmaking gravity — so wings and guards are slightly undervalued vs bigs. How Net Impact works

THE SEASON SO FAR

Jase Richardson’s first twenty games defined the agonizing volatility of a fringe rotation player desperately hunting for a permanent role. Early in the season, he routinely vanished into the background with empty, passive minutes. Then came a sudden eruption on 11/23 vs BOS, where he poured in 18 points and generated a +7.0 impact score through brilliant shot selection. He provided a similar explosive spark on 12/07 vs NYK, driving a massive +7.3 impact spike in just six minutes of action despite scoring only 8 points. That momentum was incredibly short-lived. During a 23-minute run on 12/20 vs UTA, Richardson managed 10 points but posted a disastrous -7.2 impact score. His unexpected scoring bump was entirely negated by severe point-of-attack defensive lapses that killed the team's momentum on the other end of the floor. Until he learns to anchor his game with consistent defensive discipline, his nightly value will remain a total coin flip.

This brutal twenty-game stretch was defined by erratic swings between fleeting offensive flashes and catastrophic defensive lapses that rendered Richardson a massive liability. He actually found a scoring rhythm on 01/04 vs IND with 12 points and 4 assists, yet still posted a miserable -6.6 impact score because opposing ball-handlers completely shredded his defensive coverages. He briefly flipped the script two nights later on 01/06 vs WAS. Riding an unexpected explosion of perimeter shot-making, he poured in 20 points and generated a +3.0 impact rating. Sadly, that momentum quickly evaporated into a string of unplayable performances, bottoming out on 01/22 vs CHA. During that contest, poor shot selection and a total lack of playmaking severely handicapped the offense, dragging him down to a disastrous -12.2 impact score with just 2 points in 23 minutes. Even when his on-ball defensive effort stabilized later in the winter, his utter inability to generate gravity or hit open looks kept his overall value firmly in the red.

IMPACT TIMELINE

Game-by-game performance vs average. Green = above average, red = below.

PATTERNS

Boom-or-bust player. Richardson's impact swings wildly relative to his average — some nights dominant, others invisible. Scoring varies by ~5 points per game.

Middle-of-the-road efficiency — shoots 45%+ from the field in 62% of games. Not automatic, but not a problem either.

Flat trajectory all season — first-half impact -0.8, second-half -1.7. No major shifts, which fits with the overall steadiness.

Tends to go on runs. Longest hot streak: 4 games. Longest cold streak: 7 games.
