Philadelphia 76ers guard Josh Richardson will be available to return Saturday after missing two games due to right hip soreness, according to NBC Sports Philadelphia's Serena Winters.
The Sixers are hosting Richardson's former team, the Miami Heat, in what will be the first meeting since their blockbuster trade this summer.
The deal, which also included the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Clippers, saw four-time All-Star Jimmy Butler land with the Heat via sign-and-trade. Richardson represented the 76ers' reward for facilitating the move.
In 13 appearances with his new team, Richardson has averaged 14.8 points, 3.8 assists, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.3 steals, forming a stout defense alongside Joel Embiid, Al Horford, and Ben Simmons.
