INDIANAPOLIS — The Atlanta Hawks have picked up the third-year team option on forward Zaccharie Risacher, the club announced Thursday.

Risacher, selected first overall in the 2024 NBA draft, posted 12.6 points, 3.6 rebounds and shot 35.5% from three-point range during his rookie campaign. He entered his second season by spraining an ankle in the opener, sidelining him for two games before returning in Monday’s loss at Chicago.

The decision secures the 20-year-old Frenchman under contract through the 2026-27 season.
