NextImg:Zaccharie Risacher goes to Hawks with No. 1 pick in 2024 NBA Draft

The pick is in, and it’s Zaccharie Risacher going to Atlanta.

The Hawks took the 19-year-old Frenchman, a 6-foot-8 wing out of JL Bourg-en-Bresse with the No. 1 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft over his countryman, Alex Sarr.

Risacher brings a strong all-around game to the Hawks, with his defensive game emerging as a strength this season.

It marks the second straight year a native of France has gone atop the draft, following Victor Wembanyama’s selection by the Spurs in 2023.
