On this special edition of Locked On Spurs, we talk with the Spurs 2010 second round draft pick, Ryan Richards.

Ryan has been the subject of much criticism since being drafted by the Spurs. From issues surrounding his maturity to his play for numerous teams, may felt he was a lost cause and would never suit up for the silver and black.

But has he been misunderstood? Has there been valid reasons for his ways on and off the court?

In his own words, Richards explains his side of the story.

In an honest, and self-reflecting interview, Ryan admits responsibility to his past behavior, explains why he has played for many teams overseas, expresses his desire to prove the naysayers wrong, how much his game has improved and makes it very clear - he wants to be a Spur no matter what.

This is a must listen for all Spurs fans wondering if Ryan is on the right path to join the Spurs.

In a nutshell, he is! #spurs #gospursgo
