Baskonia has recently expressed a strong interest in the talented guard R.J. Hampton. After stints with multiple NBA franchises, Hampton’s skills have caught the attention of Baskonia, who are keen on acquiring the 22-year-old player for their roster.
During the 2022-23 NBA season, R.J. Hampton played for the Detroit Pistons, averaging 7.3 points and 2.3 rebounds in 18.5 minutes per game.
Hampton’s basketball journey began when he signed a multi-year deal with the New Zealand Breakers of the National Basketball League (NBL) in 2019.
Drafted as the 24th pick by the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2020 NBA draft, Hampton’s draft rights were later traded to the Denver Nuggets in a four-team trade. He then joined the Orlando Magic in March 2021 before eventually signing with the Detroit Pistons in February 2023.
Now, with Baskonia expressing a serious interest in R.J. Hampton, the young guard’s journey might take him to the European stage, where he could continue to develop his skills and contribute to the team’s success in various competitions.
