Whether Zacc wins ROY or not, there is not one other rook I would trade him for. Not even close

At the least, I wanted him to be a ROY candidate, it feels kinda good to have one after injuries have derailed our rookies for a while.
Where the offseason has more buzz happens.

Jared McCain was a large favorite to win ROY before he was injured.

He will get another chance to win next season since he only played 23 games.

“Zacch set his career high of 38 points in Brooklyn on April 10,” the Hawks posted on X in celebration of Risacher’s selection. “In that game, he became the first rookie in NBA history to record 35+ PTS on at least .750 FG% & .500 3FG% (min. 20 FGA, 10 3FGA)”

“Only player [among rookies] in top-5 in usage, total PTS, FG, 3-PT FG, & FT. Most 30-point games (4) and highest single game total (38),” the Hawks posted in April. “Highest PPG as a starter on postseason team (12.6 ppg). Only player since Jan. 1 to average at least 14.0 points on 50% FG, 40% 3FG, 70% FT.”
