ECU’s high-volume 3-point weapon and instant offense spark
Akeem Richmond’s calling card at East Carolina was elite perimeter scoring, highlighted by multiple 10-made-3s games and a reputation as the Pirates’ most dangerous outside threat in 2013-14. He was a quick-trigger guard who could bend defenses with deep range, and his efficiency profile was strong for a volume shooter, hitting 42.0% from three while also posting 83.7% at the line. The fit question is simple: if your team needs spacing, shot-making, and a guard who can change a game fast, Richmond is the kind of specialist who matters.
