Prospect RJ Hampton could fall outside Top-10 in draft

Hampton played in the NBL as part of their Next Star program.

RJ Hampton was expected to be a lottery pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, but he could fall as far as the twenties, according to The Athletic’s Sam Vecenie.

“I think it’s more likely that Hampton hears his name called somewhere from 11 to 22 or so than it is within the top-10, based on the feedback I’m getting right now. He’s someone who could have really used the workout environment to wash the bad taste of the tape out of evaluators’ mouths”, Vecenie said.
