The Hawks Zachary Rissacher performed well in his rookie season, and his teammates praised him for his outstanding performance in his rookie season. The Atlanta Hawks have shown a bright future this season, with several players with potential to stand out in the league. Zachary Rissacher is one of them, who was drafted as the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft and performed well in his rookie season.

Throughout the season, Lissacher showed his ups and downs in the league as a rookie. By the end of the season, it was obvious that he had gradually recovered his form and found his direction. Not only did the fans see this, but the teammates also saw his progress. Larry Nance Jr. has also praised him as a rookie on social media recently.

"He is the kind of player we would focus on for over 15 years of career. He has understood the meaning of being a professional player," Nance wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

Lessacher has shown his extensive skills this season, whether it is three-pointers, basket offense, or high-level defense. If he can continue these advantages in his second season, his performance should help the Hawks achieve what they want and rank among the top of the Eastern Conference.

Zachary Rissacher is expected to continue his strong performance in his rookie season

During the season, Rissacher's mentality is to improve every day, rather than paying attention to external evaluations.

"I don't think I'm judging myself, I just make sure I have the right mindset and make sure I train hard every day so I can perform better on the court and help my team win games," Rissacher said after the game against the Philadelphia 76ers. "I just know what I'm doing. It's been a long journey, a long process, and of course, my goal is to make progress every day, which is what I've wanted to do since day one."

Lissacher has indeed made progress throughout the season, and the awards he won are the best proof. He won the Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month for two consecutive months and was shortlisted for the final shortlist of Rookie of the Year at the end of the season. This is the motivation for him to continue on this basis and he should perform better next season. The Hawks have a core group of players who have proven themselves to be one of the best teams in the East in the coming years, and they also know what needs to be done to get better.
