2021 Spotlight: Will Richard


With the travel season on hold and no opportunity for prospects entering their final year of high school to play in front of college coaches to earn scholarships, LakePoint Hoops wants to put the spotlight on the Class of 2021. Each day over the next few weeks we will be profiling a top prospect in Georgia in hopes of helping prospects generate buzz with college coaches.


Up next in the LakePoint Hoops Class of 2021 Spotlight Series…


Will Richard


Position: Wing

Height: 6’5”

High School: Woodward Academy

Travel Team: Atlanta Xpress

Scholarship Offers: Loyola Chicago, Florida Gulf Coast, VCU, Rice, Kennesaw State, Furman, Drexel, North Alabama

Scouting Report: Richard really burst onto the scene at the 2019 LakePoint TipOff Classic, showing his scoring and shooting abilities and making a name for himself as a high level Division I prospect. Since then, he has added being a state champion with Woodward Academy to his resume. With good size at 6-foot-5, Richard excels as a shot maker from distance and has a knack for hitting timely shots as well. He also has the ability to put the ball on the floor and use his body to finish at the rim. Defensively, he has shown signs of being able to take on challenges and defend opposing team’s better players and can defend multiple positions. He is also a very good student and should draw attention from some of the high academic programs at the Division I level.
