PHOENIX -- Newest Phoenix Suns center Nick Richards won't be suiting up tonight against the Washington Wizards. After being acquired Wednesday from the Charlotte Hornets in exchange for Josh Okogie and three second-round picks, Richards is listed on the injury report as out (not with team).
The Hornets will be extremely depleted for this contest, and Okogie will start at small forward due to the absence of Josh Green (foot). Okogie is averaging 10.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game over his last five appearances off the bench.
Okogie ended with 19 points (6-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, two assists and four steals across 25 minutes during Monday's 112-107 loss to the Lakers. This was Okogie's second-best scoring effort of the season.
