Duke Basketball: RJ Hampton reclassifies, drops Duke from his Final Four

The Duke Basketball program lost a potential recruit in RJ Hampton on Tuesday afternoon after he announced that he will be reclassifying into the Class of 2019.

The news was broken by Evan Daniels of 247 Sports and Hampton later posted a video on Twitter, confirming that he will be reclassifying.

Hampton’s father told Evan Daniels that RJ took Duke out of his final list of schools and added Texas Tech.

Despite RJ Hampton saying that he would prefer to play with an experienced point guard, once Tre Jones announced his return to Durham, Hampton to Duke seemed like a long shot.
