RJ Felton gets kudos for performance at Portsmouth Invitational

by | Apr 23, 2025

The NBA loves stars and those who make an impression at the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament can become just that.

Former East Carolina star guard RJ Felton is getting that kind of buzz after his performance. HoopsHype’s Cyro Asseo de Choch said in part, “Former NBA player Raymond Felton’s cousin, RJ Felton out of East Carolina emerged as one of the tournament’s most dynamic guards, playing with a relentless edge and elite athleticism.”

Felton averaged 21.7 points, five rebounds, an assist and 1.3 steals per game while shooting 65% from the field and 58.8% from 3-point range in three contests at the tournament.
