Nice
Zaccharie Risacher and Rob Dillingam both scoring 21 points in their first NBA game💀💀💀
First to comment
Plays just like Ben Simmons but actually shoots the ball and well, he also loves to actually play the game. I'm kind of diggin' this guys court vision too.
W
I like his effort, willing to shoot and feel for the game. Thats all I ask for all Hawks players pretty much
Great work. He needs a nickname tho.. Risacher….
😮
The race was close with this draft class, but I hope Zaccharie continues to prove why he was the #1 pick ❤ hard worker, humble guy
Trae Young called him a role player. Trae might be the one looking for a role on a different team.
ROTY run coming…
The most Auraless first overall pick
Maybe he deserves to be the 1st pick after all
The bronny hype was too real for the people who don’t follow much of the sport. I don’t even know who the no. 1 pick was until this popped up
If he shoots like this he gives me mpj vibes fr. May be able to self create better one day only cause of Mpjs back
C'EST CA MON GARS!
1:55 how is that not a foul?
Looks like if MPJ never got that back injury
18 pts in his first game in the summer league. 18 pts again in his first game of the preseason!
A ben simmons who can actually shoot bro 🤣
I see a mpj, derrick white type of player
Hawks got longer and more versatile,
Looks like a high-end connective piece with potential for secondary shot-creation.
Looking forward to this man’s development; especially with that length, he could be a solid defensive piece as-well.
Am I trippin or did he look way more confident here than he did in summer league?
He seems like a very fluid player. Can add value to any team. Does a little bit of everything
These Euro rookies always seem to enter the league with an NBA ready move set already, crazy. American rookies always seem to come in the league from college wild and raw. People need to start looking into our grass roots basketball training going on in our cities and schools. AAU must be trash to watch nowadays.
And y'all calling him a bust before him even playing
Risacher certainly has the potential to become an elite movement and off-the-dribble shooter in time with his shooting touch, consistent mechanics, footwork, and quick trigger
Him & Jalen finna go crazy OnnGawdd
This player has it all! And all the media still focusing on bronny james.
his game looked kind of awkward in open gym but he's insanely smooth in a competitive setting, wow
💪🏾
He reminds me of MPJ both have similar games
A real take ……..Hunter going to have to sit down. Do not keep putting him out there hoping he can do something Hawks
Better than Bronny
Hilarious how these lebron stans tried comparing zacc with bronny 😂😂 zacc is eons better than that scrub !!
Very efficent
Trae
Bogdan
Ricochet
Hunter
Capela
Yeah, that new confidence bout to make him a dangerous player.. just needs to get stronger.
BETTER THAN WEMBY………… SO FAR.
He reminds me of a more “engaged” Keegan Murray, I know nothing about Zac but he’s proving why he’s #1 and thas all that matters Fr
he definitely plays like a #1 pick
lots of potential
Zacc ROYrisher 👈🏾💰💰💰
Bro is going to be special!
💟
Brony is better!
WE GOT OUR KLAY
