Episode Details

Rookie Will Richard of the Golden State Warriors is hitting his stride — and his wall — after a brutal first NBA season. Fresh off college, he jumped straight into pre-draft workouts, Summer League, and training camp, only to feel the burn by January. Despite starting strong and earning some key minutes, his energy faded, and his stats dipped to 6.4 PPG, 2.5 RPG, and 1.3 APG over 69 games. But Richard isn’t backing down. He’s doubling down on recovery, nutrition, and self-care to stay sharp through the long NBA grind. Learning from veteran Warriors, he’s sharpening his defense, speeding up his decision-making, and building strength — even taking up golf and hot yoga to find balance. His drive? Pure win-at-all-costs mentality. He’s not just chasing personal growth — he’s laser-focused on helping the Warriors make the playoffs and becoming a true impact player. Summer League stats hint at his progress, and he’s ready to push through whatever comes his way in Year 2.
