    RJ Hampton's future for the rest of the Breakers' Australian basketball league season is unclear

    RJ Hampton's future for the rest of the Breakers' Australian basketball league season is unclear


    Hampton was a gameday withdrawal from the win over the Sydney Kings with a recurrence of the hip injury that's restricted him in recent weeks.

    This week, fellow NBA draft prospect LaMelo Ball was officially shut down for the rest of Illawarra's campaign due to injury issues.

    Breakers coach Dan Shamir says he's not experienced with the kind of injury Hampton has.



    Sek Henry also missed the game with a muscle injury and is likely to be a gameday decision tomorrow against Melbourne.
