This season continues to be a struggle for the Charlotte Hornets, but rookie Zaccharie Risacher's recent performance offers a glimmer of hope. In the Atlanta Hawks' convincing 134-102 victory, Risacher showcased his potential, scoring 21 points with eight rebounds, two assists, and five three-pointers in just 24 minutes of play. His shooting has improved significantly, averaging 15 points and over 51% from the field in the last week. While consistency in assists and defensive stats remains a concern, his development is promising.

As the Hawks vie for a playoff position, Risacher is not in danger of being sidelined. Meanwhile, other low-rostered players are stepping up, including Kyle Filipowski of the Utah Jazz, who should see increased opportunities with injuries affecting key teammates. Keon Johnson and Buddy Hield are also making their presence felt on their respective teams, hinting at potential fantasy value in the coming games. For those managing fantasy rosters, these players could prove vital as the season draws to a close.
