Risacher accumulated 15 points (5-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals across 21 minutes during Sunday's 120-117 victory over the 76ers. The scoring output was strong, but Risacher continues to underwhelm as a whole and hasn't quite taken the leap some fantasy managers may have hoped for during his second season. The 2024 No. 1 overall pick doesn't appear to be in any danger of losing his starting role, but he's averaged just 9.5 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.1 steals in 24.6 minutes per contest in his last 12 games.

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. 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.

Risacher totaled 17 points (6-12 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, three blocks and two steals across 30 minutes during Tuesday's 132-113 loss to the Wizards. Risacher recorded season highs in threes made and blocks, but his efforts were not enough to stop Atlanta from losing in blowout fashion. The 2024 No. 1 overall pick broke out of his three-game shooting slump, averaging just 5.0 points on 26.9 percent from the field and 7.1 percent from three in that span prior to Tuesday, so this is an encouraging sign for Risacher moving forward.

Risacher (hip) is available for Thursday's game against the Spurs. The second-year forward is set to return after missing Tuesday's game due to a left hip contusion, which he suffered on a hard fall Sunday. Before the injury, Risacher was heating up, posting 15.4 points a game. With Risacher back in the starting lineup, Luke Kennard and Asa Newell should see reduced roles.

Risacher (hip) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Spurs, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. Risacher sat out of Tuesday's matchup against the Pistons due to a bruised left hip, and he's in danger of missing additional game action. The team should have an update on his availability closer to Thursday's tipoff.
