Will Richard Out Indefinitely with Torn Thumb Ligament for Warriors

Golden State Warriors guard Will Richard is sidelined for an undetermined stretch after sustaining a UCL tear in his left thumb. The injury affects his non-shooting hand, leaving his return timeline unclear. The second-year guard has provided key perimeter depth for Golden State both as a starter and reserve this season, averaging 5.1 points and 1.8 rebounds across 10 games. The blow forces the Warriors to adjust their rotation in his absence.
