Zaccharie Risacher left Atlanta Hawks fans optimistic after last season, despite an underwhelming finish from the team. His performance in the second half of the season was cited as a big reason the team felt comfortable having the bold offseason they did.

Risacher averaged 14.1 points per game on 50% from the field and 41% from three after the All-Star break, making a serious case for the Rookie of the Year award.
