Jason Richardson announced his retirement last week, ending his 14-year career with his best years with the Golden State Warriors.
Richardson was a fan favorite and considered by many as one of the most popular players in franchise history. Whether it was his ridiculous athleticism, lethal shooting, or infectious personality, he never seemed to let down the Warrior faithful. Even after the Warriors inexplicably dealt Richardson to the Charlotte Bobcats for Brandon Wright, the fans of Golden State were always behind Richardson.
Richardson was a part of the Warriors’ most successful draft prior to 2012.
