The R.J. Barrett Blog: Potentially reclassifying, being No. 1, and more
Posted May 19, 2017
R.J. Barrett: People ask me all the time about whether I’ll reclassify from 2019 to 2018 and it’s definitely a possibility. I’ve been back and forth with it; there are a lot of pros for doing both so it’ll be a tough decision. As for my recruitment, I pretty much let my dad handle all of that stuff right now. I just need to focus on basketball and school, so he helps me out and lets me do that.
