R.J. Hampton and father talk UK interest, possibly moving into 2019 class

R.J. Hampton is developing a big name for himself as he enters his junior year of high school, and of course, Kentucky is on the radar.

The 2020 star has been lighting it up as of late. He is a 6-4, 170-pound point guard ranked fourth overall in the class of 2020. Right now, Duke is the frontrunner with Kansas right behind, according to the 247 Sports Crystal Ball.

However, Hampton’s recruitment could be getting a big shakeup, as he’s considering a move into the Class of 2019.

Jason Jordan of USA Today caught up with RJ at the Peach Jam last week and was able to ask about his interest and overall thoughts about the University of Kentucky.
