RJ Barrett has become the first member of Duke’s star freshman class to
announce his NBA intentions.
RJ Barrett成為這屆杜克大學新生中第一個宣布參加2019年NBA選秀會的成員。
The 6-foot-7 forward revealed Wednesday that he was declaring for the 2019
NBA draft. His declaration is no surprise; Barrett has been considered a
top-five NBA draft pick and a one-and-done player ever since he enrolled at
Duke.
身高6尺7的Barrett在當地時間周三在Twitter上宣布將投入2019選秀。
以下是Twitter內容：

I want to thank God, my family, my coaches and everyone that has helped me
reach this decision
「我想要感謝上帝、我的家人、我的教練們，以及每個幫助我做出這決定的人。」
外界對此決定並不意外，
Barrett一直以來都是被預測打完大一球季就會投入選秀，且落點在前五順位。
Barrett was tied for the team lead in scoring at Duke with fellow freshman
Zion Williamson at 22.6 points per game. He also averaged 7.6 rebounds and
dished out over four assists per game. While Williamson is widely believed to
be the No. 1 overall pick in the June draft, Barrett could go right behind
him. Along with Murray State’s Ja Morant, Barrett is considered one of the
options to go at No. 2.
Barrett以每場可攻下22.6分的成績和隊友Zion Williamson共同排在杜克大學得分榜上，
外加7.6籃板4.4助攻。
雖然外界普遍認為Zion會在六月的選秀大會上以狀元之姿被挑中，
但Barrett的選秀預測排名一直緊跟在Zion之後，與Murray State大學的Ja Morant一樣，
Barrett也被預測是榜眼候選人之一。
