2024 Fantasy Outlook
The No. 1 overall pick in last year's draft, Risacher finished second in Rookie of the Year voting. Based on your expectations for the class as a whole, and Risacher specifically, the campaign could be considered a success or a letdown. Either way, it's undeniable he improved as the season went along. From Jan. 1 onward, Risacher averaged 14.0 points and 1.9 threes on 50/40/73 shooting, 3.7 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.4 blocks across 25.3 minutes. The main knock on the 20-year-old's game right now is probably that he doesn't have a standout skill. Spot-up shooting became a positive for Risacher, but not until later in the year, and he was only strong from the corners. And while he was fine defensively, racking up some solid block and offensive rebound numbers for his position, it wasn't anything to write home about. It's also important to consider how low his usage rate was, given that Jalen Johnson - Atlanta's No. 2 option - didn't see the floor from Jan. 25 through the end of the season. He'll be healthy to start the year, and the Hawks brought in Kristaps Porzingis, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Luke Kennard this summer. Minutes and usage will be tougher to come by for Risacher this year than last. Of course, it's possible Risacher takes a sizable step forward and forces the coaching staff to play him 30 minutes per game, but his ceiling for this season still feels relatively capped.

Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Widely viewed as a prospect who could come off the board in the high-lottery, Risacher is an intriguing blend of size, length and shooting ability. The 19-year-old Frenchman has developed into a knockdown shooter this season, drilling nearly 39 percent of his attempts from beyond the arc and shooting better than 46 percent from the floor, overall. Risacher rebounds well for his position and has plenty of range on the defensive end, though at this stage he's more of a catch-and-shoot threat than a player who can consistently create off the dribble. Risacher is also averaging less than 1.0 assists per game for JL Bourg (France), so playmaking will be an area of focus when it comes to his development. At 6-foot-8 with a rangy wingspan, Risacher has prototypical size for an NBA wing. Shooting is his primary calling card, though he took a massive leap in efficiency this season after hovering around 30 percent from three-point range in 2022-23. He's also a middling free-throw shooter (71.6% FT this season), so Risacher will have to prove that the jump in outside shooting is for real at the NBA level. To reach his ceiling, Risacher will likely need to add some weight to his 200-pound frame, but that's a major concern at this stage in his development. Ideally, Risacher would land with a team that's willing to be patient with his development. He's unlikely to be an instant-impact player in Year 1, but down the road his shooting and decision-making could make him a valuable rotation piece. Risacher may not quite be a true "project" player, but in the immediate future the focus will be on developing his body and rounding out his ballhandling and defensive awareness. While Risacher is not a premier athlete, he moves well laterally and should be able to swing between both forward positions in the NBA. At this stage, he projects as more of a long-term role player, as opposed to a No. 1 or even No. 2 option on a contending team, but that's not a knock on his long-term potential. In terms of his size and skill set, Michael Porter Jr., Cameron Johnson and Kelly Oubre are reasonable NBA comparisons.

Modest production continues
FAtlanta Hawks
December 1, 2025
Risacher ended Monday's 99-98 loss to the Pistons with four points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and three steals across 22 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Risacher recorded another disappointing line, despite a season-high three steals. Although he has been a permanent fixture in the starting lineup, Risacher has been far from a must-roster player. In 24.7 minutes per game, he has averaged 11.4 points, 1.0 steals and 1.5 three-pointers, barely putting him inside the top 200 in standard fantasy formats.
