The Celtics have reportedly met with former New Zealand guard R.J. Hampton virtually, and intend to meet with him face-to-face, according to Forbes Sports’ Chris Grenham.
That the Celtics plan to use one of their 10 in-person visits allowed due to pandemic-related health restrictions signals real interest, assuming it actually comes to pass.
Hampton, who has a lot to work on from jump shot to footwork, is one of the draft’s most athletic prospects, and has been putting in work on his shot with NBA shooting legend Mike Miller.
I sought out Mike for a reason. I wanted to be a great shooter, so why not learn from the best. Over the last six, seven months, it’s been going really well. I’m seeing the changes, R.J. Hampton told Forbes Sports.
Getting in the gym, making as many shots as you can each day, seeing the ball go through the net, it definitely gives you a lot of confidence, R.J. Hampton told Forbes Sports
