Jason Richardson - J-Rich

Jason Anthoney "J-Rich" Richardson (born January 20, 1981, in Saginaw, Michigan) is an American professional basketball player, currently playing shooting guard for the National Basketball Association's Charlotte Bobcats. He formerly played for the Golden State Warriors, from whom he was traded June 28, 2007 after six years with the team.

The Warriors drafted him with the 5th overall pick in the 2001 NBA Draft out of Michigan State University. It was while playing with Michigan State that he and fellow current NBA players Mateen Cleaves, Charlie Bell, and Morris Peterson (and current Melbourne Tiger and NBL first-teamer Dave Thomas) won an NCAA National Championship.

Richardson won the NBA Slam Dunk Contests in 2002 and 2003, joining Michael Jordan as the only players to have won in consecutive years.

Jason is known for his electric style of play and ability to shoot a three-pointer. Richardson set the Warrior franchise record for three-pointers in a game (8) in a home win against the Phoenix Suns.

I didn't used to like J Rich because he played for the Suns. I will start to like him now that he plays for the Magic. I hope he helps my magic out.
