Richardson made it known that he intends to be anything but a throw-in player as part of the 12-player, four-team trade that brought Bynum and him to the Sixers last week.

“It’s really a great opportunity for me at this point in my career to come to a team that is headed on the upswing,” the former Orlando swingman said. “I’m looking forward to coming to Philly and contributing in a big way.”
