“is a die-hard Arsenal supporter”

Last checked November 6, 2026: the quote still matched the page word for word.
What has Josh Richardson said about Arsenal?
Nothing on record, at least not in his own words. The Arsenal link comes from a third party: CaughtOffSide, in a piece dated December 28, 2020, described him as someone who "is a die-hard Arsenal supporter." That is the outlet's description, and it does not include a statement from Richardson himself. The most that can be said is that he has a background tie to the club, not a fandom he has declared.
Did Josh Richardson grow up an Arsenal fan?
Nothing in the record says he did, and nothing in his background points toward London. Richardson was born on September 15, 1993, in Edmond, Oklahoma, and went to Santa Fe High School there. He then played at Tennessee from 2011 to 2015 before the Miami Heat took him in the second round of the 2015 draft, 40th overall.
His NBA career has run through the Heat (2015 to 2019), the Philadelphia 76ers, the Dallas Mavericks, the Boston Celtics, the San Antonio Spurs (2022 to 2023), the New Orleans Pelicans (2023), and a second stint with Miami (2023 to 2025). In 2026 he played for Basket Zaragoza. None of those stops is in London, and the record does not connect any of them to the Arsenal tie.
When did Josh Richardson become an Arsenal fan?
No date is given. The only dated item is the December 2020 CaughtOffSide description, which shows the tie was being reported by then. It does not say when it began, and nothing indicates it has ended or that anyone disputes it.
Which other athletes are Arsenal fans?
Three other players are tied to Arsenal, and their standing differs. Joel Embiid is a fan in his own words. Jaylen Brown is reported as one. Giannis Antetokounmpo used to be a fan, which the record treats as past rather than current. Richardson's own tie rests on the same kind of outside description as Brown's, though for Richardson it is classed as a background tie, not a stated fandom.
