Tyrese Maxey would “love” to play with RJ Hampton at Kentucky

Back on April 9, 2020 five-star combo guard RJ Hampton made headlines after writing in a blog post on USA Today that he was not only strongly considering making a jump to the class of 2019, but that he also wanted to play with another elite point guard.

“I actually think playing with another elite point guard is a more attractive option because either one of us can bring it down and I can do what I do best and score the ball,” he said. “I think that makes us a more dangerous team.”

Hampton, who is down to Kentucky, Duke, Kansas, and Memphis, specifically mentioned Blue Devil guard Tre Jones and Devon Dotson of the Jayhawks as two examples of individuals he’d like to play with.
