Risacher (rest) won't play in Thursday's preseason game against the Thunder, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
The Hawks are resting most of their projected rotational players, and they won't risk the first overall pick of the 2024 NBA Draft in the preseason finale. The Frenchman is slated to play a significant role for the Hawks as a rookie and could even find himself in a starting role during the season opener against the Nets next Wednesday.
