The G League will introduce a new international draft program beginning with a one-round virtual draft on June 28, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
The international draft will allow overseas prospects between the ages of 18 and 21 to enter the G League for player development as opposed to joining an NCAA men’s basketball program or playing for another professional organization for the 2023-24 season.
This new aspect of the G League comes after a fresh round of collective bargaining between the NBA and players union. Under the previous CBA, any prospect, such as Thanasis Antetokounmpo during the 2013-14 season, who joined the G League would become automatically enrolled in the following June’s NBA Draft. Now beginning with the 2023-24 season, prospects will no longer be required to enter the subsequent NBA Draft, sources said, starting with the 2024 draft.
