Duke swingman RJ Barrett will stage a pro day with the rest of agent Bill Duffy’s draft-eligibles Tuesday at UCLA. Unlike the other participants, however, Barrett is not expected to perform drills — just interview with teams and speak with the media.

This at least gives a chance for the Pelicans to meet with Barrett, who is expected to fall to the third pick and into the laps of the Knicks. The Knicks, however, have not ruled out trading the pick to the Pelicans in an Anthony Davis blockbuster.

At the Chicago combine last week, Barrett interviewed with just the Knicks and No. 2 Memphis, which is leaning toward taking point guard Ja Morant.

The Post reported Barrett would prefer that Memphis pass on him, so he can play for the Knicks or No. 4 Lakers. The 6-foot-7 swingman also declined to do measurements at the combine.
