College career
Syracuse Orange
On December 3, 2020, Richmond made his first career start for Syracuse in the absence of Buddy Boeheim. He recorded a freshman season-high 16 points, seven rebounds, six assists, four steals and three blocks in a 75–45 win over Niagara.[6] As a freshman, he averaged 6.3 points, 3.1 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 21 minutes per game.[7]
Seton Hall Pirates
After the season, Richmond transferred to Seton Hall.[8] On January 8, 2022, he scored a career-high 27 points in a 90-87 overtime win over UConn.[9] Richmond began playing more minutes later in January 2022 due to Bryce Aiken being in concussion protocol, and coach Kevin Willard said of Richmond, "I think you're starting to see the evolution of a really, really good player."[10]
As a senior, Richmond earned first-team All-Big East honors after averaging 15.7 points, 7.0 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game. He led Seton Hall to an NIT title, contributing 21 points, 13 rebounds in the championship game against Indiana State.[11]
St. John's Red Storm

Following the close of his college career, Richmond signed with the Capital City Go-Go of the NBA G League. On February 11, 2026, Richmond was signed to a 10-day contract by the Washington Wizards, and debuted for the team that evening.[13] He appeared in three NBA games, before his 10-day contract expired, and he returned to the Go-Go.
