Miami Heat’s Josh Richardson is Your New Favorite Indie Music Loving NBA Player

Today marks the start of the NBA season and over the years we’ve told you a whole lot about the musical preferences of your favorite NBA players and here is one more in the form of Miami Heat guard Josh Richardson, who spends his evenings dunking on everyone and everything and his days bumping Beach House and discovering new music.

Richardson, a second year guard out of Tennessee, routinely takes to Twitter to share the music he’s listening to and to solicit new music advice. He loves Interpol, Beach House, Phantogram, Glass Animals and a lot of your other favorite indie artists. Josh is also looking for someone to teach him how to play the guitar, so if you’re in the market, hit him up on Twitter. Although I imagine he will be busy in the coming months.

Here are some of his best musical tweets in the recent months.

Man the performance and presentation on the old guitar heroes were so much better than the new games

Can I just get a show of hands… Has anybody ever actually sat down and chose the music category “easy listening” on purpose

I really wish there was an app that let you hum the melody to a song and told you what song you’re humming
