1. R.J. Hampton
R.J. Hampton has serious potential to be the biggest steal of the 2020 NBA Draft. The young guard was ranked as the fifth-best high school player of his class but has since seen his draft stock decrease since an injury halted his overseas career.
Hampton is a tall and lanky athlete at the guard position. He is crafty in the mid-range and has raw talent as a slasher. Above all else, he displayed a deadly 3-point shot in high school that could turn him into a prolific scorer in the NBA one day.
The Golden State Warriors may be able to help Hampton get his career back on track. He has been humbled by his time overseas and may be willing to accept a minimal role for his first few seasons. Spending some time learning under Stephen Curry could bring the best out of this prospect.
Hampton has some work to do before reaching star status and this is what is holding back a lot of teams from drafting him. However, if everything plays out right, Hampton could have a bright future in the league. This is a risk the Warriors might be willing to take.
