The top-ranked point guard in the 2020 class will play college basketball this fall. R.J. Hampton tells ESPN he will soon graduate and enroll in a college this fall.

“I’ve decided to reclassify to the 2019 class,” Hampton told ESPN. “I am doing this because I feel that from a development standpoint, this is the right move for me at this time in order to play against the highest level of competition possible. I am eager to test myself against older and more physically developed players in order to help improve my weaknesses and prepare me for reaching the ultimate goal of playing in the NBA.
