Recruiting analyst thinks Kentucky will land RJ Hampton

John Calipari and his staff are working hard to finish off the 2019 recruiting class, but they’re also hard at work finding players for the 2020 team.

One player high on Kentucky’s wish list is five-star guard RJ Hampton from Texas. The consensus top-10 recruit is ranked sixth overall for 2020 by 247 Sports. It would be a critical addition to the class with 2019 guard Tyrese Maxey expected to stay only one season, along with the fact that both Ashton Hagans and Tyler Herro will likely no longer be around by then.

As of now, the junior has cut his list to five schools.
