Projected No. 1 pick Zaccharie Risacher to enter NBA draft

Zaccharie Risacher, the projected No. 1 pick, has submitted paperwork to the league office making him eligible for the 2024 NBA draft, he told ESPN on Monday.

"I'm proud of being part of this journey with my teammates and what we accomplished in the EuroCup. We definitely want to do something special the rest of the season. It's been a long season and long process with a lot of ups and downs." The son of former Olympian and EuroLeague player Stephane Risacher, Zaccharie was identified as possibly the top international prospect in his age group from an early stage. He represented France at the FIBA level at the U16, U17 and U19 levels, and making his senior national team debut this past February at the age of 18.

Risacher, who says he grew up idolizing Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry, said he's not as concerned with what pick he's drafted as much as finding the right fit for his NBA career.
