After being drafted first overall, Risacher averaged 12.6 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1.2 stocks (steals plus blocks) in 24.6 minutes per game while playing in 75 games and started 73 of those. He shot more and more efficiently from the field as the season went on, finishing with 46% shooting from the field and 36% shooting from three.

Having just turned 20 this past April, the sky is the limit for the Frenchman in the years going forward as a central member of the Atlanta Hawks. Congratulations to him for this achievement!
