Limited role in season-ending loss
Risacher racked up three points (1-11 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and two steals across 16 minutes during Friday's 123-114 overtime Play-In Game loss to the Heat.
The Scoop: Despite starting, Risacher only saw 16 minutes of action in Friday's overtime loss, allowing Caris LeVert, Terance Mann and Georges Niang to all receive increased playing time. The No. 1 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft ended his rookie campaign averaging 12.6 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 24.6 minutes on 45.8/35.5/71.1 shooting splits across 75 regular-season appearances. However, in Risacher's 42 regular-season appearances since the beginning of January, he converted 40.1 percent of his 4.8 three-point attempts per contest.
