Hamilton also nabbed 5.8 rpg, 3.0 steals and 2.8 assist while amassing 35 blocks, albeit against small Division II competition.

        Hamilton then transferred to Virginia Commonwealth and underwent back surgery in the summer of 1995.

As a sophomore in 1995, Hamilton started all 30 games, for an average 32.1 mpg. He hit 89-235 (.379) from the floor, 50-143 (.350) from the arc and 33-54 (.611) from the line, while garnering 104 boards, including 23 on the offensive glass and a 3.5 rpg, 64 fouls, 147 assists, 112 turnovers, 9 blocks, 45 steals and 261 points, for an 8.7 ppg.

After the season, Virginia Commonwealth joined the Colonial Athletic Association as the powers of the Metro and Great Midwest merged to form the Conference USA. Going into the 1996 season, Smith said he expected big things from Hamilton as he’s “injury free and he’s had a year to get stronger. I expect a bigger scoring load and better ballhandling to help us become a running team again. We were a boring, half-court basketball team last year.”

        As a junior in 1996, Hamilton earned second-team all-conference honors. He started all 33 games, playing an average 29.2 mpg.

In the offseason, he started for the Canadian national team against teams like Lithuania and Croatia. “After playing against that level of competition, we feel like he’s definitely going to have developed more,” said Smith. “he’s more of a second guard type point guard than he is a true point guard. We think he’s capable of becoming more of a true point guard. Playing against the competition he has this summer ought to help him develop that. He’s been a good shooter all along. He needs to be a better handler.”

        As a senior in 1997, Hamilton started all 27 games, playing an average 33.8 mpg. He hit 89-220 (.405) from the floor, 41-125 (.328) from the arc and 39-69 (.565) from the line, while garnering 106 boards (including 28 on the offensive glass and a 3.9 rpg), 127 assists (4.7 apg), 58 turnovers (2.1 tpg), 35 steals (1.3 spg), 3 blocks (0.1 bpg), 55 fouls (fouling out twice) and 258 points, for a 9.6 ppg (and a game-high 17).
