Rookie slump continues Risacher closed Friday's 123-115 loss to the Kings with three points (1-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt) and one rebound across 20 minutes.
Impact Risacher couldn't keep the momentum going after his 17-point effort in the loss to the Wizards on Wednesday, and he had a rough shooting performance this time around. Risacher has scored in single digits in four of his six outings to date, averaging 8.2 points per contest and shooting a worrisome 31.6 percent from the field. It's still early to hit the panic button, but Risacher's efficiency numbers have conspired against his upside thus far, especially since he's expected to remain in the starting unit for the foreseeable future.

Minimal impact in loss Okongwu had two points (1-5 FG, 0-4 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 133-120 loss to the Wizards.
Impact Okongwu returned to action Wednesday after missing Washington's previous contest with a toe injury. While the 23-year-old big man had a great Opening Night, he is averaging just 7.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 24.3 minutes in his last three appearances. Until Okognwu is able to officially supplant Clint Capela as the Hawks' starting center, his statistical output will likely continue to be inconsistent.
