Ok the title is kinda click bait because he mentioned it around the 45 minute mark of the newest 2 part Locked on Hawks podcast and even said "I don't think it's going to happen" and called it his wild august prediction but it's still interesting to think about. He went on to say that Trae-Risacher-Hunter-JJ-a center could be our starting lineup.
How we feeling about 19 year old, 6'9 Risacher starting next to Trae this year?

If you’re gonna draft him #1 then he better start.
my idea: alternate between him and Dyson for preseason and then decide to start em both when you remember Dre is great off the bench.
Please keep bringing Dre and Bogi off the bench. It actually works
Who tf is our 3?? Trae Dyson Ris Jalen <Center>
He is a forward. Did people think he was going to start at the 2? Heâs gonna split minutes with Dre at the 3
His team in France had him picking up guards full court and he excelled, so it could work. My only concern is there are a lot more explosive shooting guards in this league than there are small forwards. Any given stretch, you could play Devin Booker, Donovan Mitchell, Anthony Edwards, etc., in the same week. He’s already going to have a target on his back going #1, I’d hate for him to start having confidence issues if things don’t go his way early on. Trae, Dyson, Risacher, JJ, and OO is the lineup I’d go with.
