BUILDING A ROSTER NBA G LEAGUE ROSTERS CONSIST OF MANY PLAYERS AT DIFFERENT STAGES IN THEIR CAREERS WHO TOOK DIFFERENT PATHS TO THE PROS. ASSEMBLING A ROSTER IS A COMPLICATED PROCESS. HERE’S HOW NBA G LEAGUE TEAMS FIND THEIR PLAYERS. NBA ASSIGNEES I NBA teams can assign players with three years of service or less an unlimited number of times. Previous assignments from the Orlando Magic have included players like Jonathan Isaac, Chuma Okeke, and Caleb Houstan.

RETURNING PLAYERS I Teams hold the rights to any player who played for them within the last two seasons, as long as they have not traded or released that player.

NBA AFFILIATE PLAYERS I When NBA teams trim their rosters during training camp and the preseason, they have the first opportunity to acquire their waived players on their NBA G League affiliate. Organizations can designate “affiliate players”, though those players will remain NBA free agents This allows NBA front offices to identify prospects that they like and keep them in their system.

LOCAL PLAYER TRYOUTS I NBA G League teams hold tryouts during each off-season, inviting some players to participate for free while attracting locals who can pay a small fee to participate. The teams can invite the cream of the crop (up to four players) to their training camps.

NBA G LEAGUE DRAFT PICKS I Every fall, more than 200 players are signed by the league office and placed in the NBA G League Draft. About half of them are selected on Draft day, which features a field of NBA and NBA G League vets, international pros, undrafted rookies and NBA G League National Tryout players.

FREE AGENTS I NBA G League rosters often have a high level of turnover from year to year. That’s because the league is infused with talent throughout the season as players return from stints overseas and NBA veterans who work their way back into the league and enter the player pool.

TWO-WAY PLAYERS I In the 2023-24 season NBA rosters expanded from 17 to 18 players with the addition of one spot for players under “Two-Way Contracts.” NBA teams may have up to three players under NBA Two-Way Contracts who could spend the bulk of the season in the NBA G League and not more than 50 games with their NBA team. Notable Osceola Magic Two-Way Contract players include Trevelin Queen and Mac McClung.
