Detroit Pistons are signing young guard RJ Hampton after he received his release from the Orlando Magic, per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. Hampton was traded to the Magic nearly two years ago in the big Aaron Gordon deal. Hampton played nearly 2,000 minutes with the Magic in the past 1.5 seasons, but he struggled to develop offensively and got squeezed out of the rotation as the Magic decided to commit to Markelle Fultz, Jalen Suggs, and Cole Anthony with a lift from veteran Gary Harris.

He is a dallas native, why the f… Mavs did not sign him?
great move his defense could be elite
If he doesn't work out the Pistons don't have to resign him. They have nothing to lose.
I hope the Detroit Pistons continue to Tank for draft positioning I am afraid getting RJ Hampton and James Wiseman will jeopardize our ability to super tank like Rockets and the Spurs are doing. It is obvious the Detroit Piston could explode with victories with a nucleus of desperate young players playing for their basketball lives in the NBA and with this weak schedule remaining. If Dwayne Casey started A true fast break in the paint no three point shooting RIM protection lineup of Ivory, RJ Hampton, James Wiseman and Duren and Diallo they will be the Speed package lineup for the first 5 minute of the game so they can wear out the starters of the other team and then the Bench players of Stewart and Bagley and Killian, Livers, Bojan or even Birch will unleash the best three point shooters into the game at the same time and with this balance extreme lineup will be very difficult for most NBA team to follow. Thank GOD Casey is the Tank master and will never put a lineup together that would dominate the league and cause us to lose out on getting Victor, Scoot or MIller. I believe next year the Pistons can reach the Eastern Conference final if we get a Top draft pick and Cade Cunningham returns and a new Head coach smart like ME.
Did you go from talking about RJ than start talking about people copying you lol
So that trade for AG was a waste!!
