Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher (groin) is not on the injury report ahead of Thursday's contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He missed Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. However, this was the second leg of a back-to-back, so the team was simply cautious with Risacher, who only recently returned from a six-game absence. With Jalen Johnson (shoulder) done for the season, we might see Risacher much more for the rest of the way. He has averaged only 23.7 minutes for his rookie campaign. The young Frenchman has struggled with his shooting, notching 10.5 points with 3.6 rebounds.
Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) will not suit up for Tuesday's meeting with the Houston Rockets. The top pick of last year's draft was back from a six-game absence on Monday against the Minnesota Timberwolves, logging 20 minutes, but he will come out of the lineup on Tuesday for adductor injury management purposes. De'Andre Hunter went off for a big 35-point game against Minnesota and looks set for a vital role again on Tuesday. Additionally, Vit Krejci and Garrison Mathews are likely to see additional action as well.
Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) will play on Monday night against the Timberwolves. The rookie missed the last six games because of an adductor strain and carried a questionable tag heading into this contest. But he's good to go. Under normal circumstances, his return would be good news. However, it's even better news, considering Jalen Johnson (shoulder), Trae Young (hamstring), and Dyson Daniels (ankle) are ruled out. While Risacher hasn't been a consistently reliable fantasy contributor this season, he should see more opportunities to produce alongside De'Andre Hunter (illness), Vit Krejci, and Onyeka Okongwu.
Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) is questionable for Monday's matchup with Minnesota. The rookie, who has missed the last six games because of an adductor strain, has averaged 10.5 points this season. However, with Jalen Johnson (shoulder) and Trae Young (hamstring) both ruled out versus the Timberwolves, Risacher would be in a position to be more productive. His fantasy ceiling would rise even higher if De'Andre Hunter (illness) remains on the shelf after missing Saturday's loss to the Toronto Raptors.
Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) will miss at least one more week of action. The team announced on Tuesday that Risacher will be re-evaluated in one week. He has been out for three games already due to a strained left adductor. Risacher's absence is set to stretch to at least seven games. Vit Krejci has moved to the starting unit as Risacher's replacement. He's averaging 9.7 points, 2.8 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.0 steals in that role for the campaign. De'Andre Hunter's fantasy stock has also received a boost. He has logged 30-plus minutes in back-to-back games for the first time this season.
Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) remains out heading into Saturday's meeting with the Celtics. The 19-year-old, who wasn't available in the win over the Bulls because of an adductor strain, has been inconsistent for fantasy managers this season, averaging 10.5 points and 3.5 rebounds. He's also shot just 28.1% from behind the arc. Until he's back on the floor, De'Andre Hunter (foot), who is probable, will likely fill the void in the lineup. Hunter played well in two starts this season, averaging 18.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 1.0 steals, giving him plenty of upside for fantasy managers. That will still apply even if he comes off the bench.
Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Chicago. The 2024 top draft pick is dealing with left adductor irritation and will miss the first game of his rookie campaign. Jalen Johnson (shoulder), Trae Young (ribs), and De'Andre Hunter (foot) are out as well, so we will see a lot of unusual lineups from the Hawks. Bogdan Bogdanovic and David Roddy will directly benefit from Risacher's absence.
Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher had a frustrating Summer League outing against the Spurs on Sunday. The top pick of this year's draft continued to struggle with his shooting and settled for 11 points while going 4-for-12 from the field in a 79-76 loss. He collected five rebounds and had a pair of assists with one block but finished with a 1-for-7 record from downtown. Risacher has shot below 40 percent from the field through his first two games in Las Vegas. However, the 19-year-old Frenchman is not the first rookie to struggle with his shot in his first few outings, and he definitely won't be the last.
Zaccharie Risacher Leads Atlanta In Scoring Friday
Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher had 18 points in Friday's Summer League loss to the Washington Wizards. The 2024 No. 1 overall pick led his team in scoring, adding five rebounds, one steal, and one block. However, he struggled shooting, going 7-for-16 from the field and 3-for-9 from deep. All things considered, it was a decent showing from Risacher. With that said, he'll likely find his rhythm offensively, and there's a good chance he'll be one of the top producers of Summer League, assuming Atlanta keeps him on the floor.
