Fantasy Impact
Risacher has now reached double digits in four of ten games this month as he continues to adjust to his new sixth-man role. Over the last two games, Risacher has hit for 16 and 17 points, respectively, while shooting 11-of-14 from the field and 6-of-7 from deep. He is averaging 9.5 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 0.9 assists in 10 games this month.
Zaccharie Risacher finished with 19 points (6-12 FG, 3-5 3PT, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds, and two blocks in Thursday's win over the Nets.
Fantasy Impact
The red-hot Hawks, winners of eight in a row now, are certainly looking for more games like this from Risacher. The top-overall pick from 2024 has played exclusively off the bench in all five games so far this month, and seven of the last eight games. In that span, Risacher has averaged just 9.0 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 1.3 steals while shooting 45.0% from the field and 38.7% from deep.
Zaccharie Risacher is available for Thursday’s game against the Wizards.
Fantasy Impact
Risacher is good to go after being listed as questionable. He should remain in his usual role for the Hawks alongside Jonathan Kuminga, who is coming off making his team debut.

Fantasy Impact
Risacher logged over 28 minutes off the bench in Tuesday's win, totaling nine points and nine rebounds. If the second-year forward is unable to go in Thursday's rematch, Corey Kispert could see additional minutes.
Zaccharie Risacher scored nine points (4-11 FG, 0-5 3PT, 1-2 FT) and grabbed nine rebounds in 28 minutes off the bench during Atlanta's 21-point win over Washington on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
After starting his first 44 games of the year, Risacher has come off the bench in each of the last two contests. He is averaging 8.0 points and 5.0 rebounds in nearly 24 minutes per game in those two games. For the month, Risacher is averaging 7.0 points on 33.8% shooting. Now, with Jonathan Kuminga in the mix - and scoring a game-high 27 points on Tuesday - Risacher may need to start producing more or his minutes could continue to dwindle.
