Richardson suffered a left shoulder injury near the end of Friday's Game 6 victory over the Hornets, although severity remains unknown, Jason Lieser of The Palm Beach Post reports.

Analysis:

Richardson still managed to spend 26 minutes on the court Friday before his exit. It seems that he's waiting to return to Miami before seeking out further medical evaluation, so his status for Game 7 on Sunday won't likely be made clear until Saturday. If he's forced to sit, Tyler Johnson will likely be in store for a bump in playing time even though he's yet to see the court in the postseason.
