D-League Draft on NBA TV and Streamed Online

Thursday, October 8, 2009

Good news broke yesterday for fans of the NBA Development League. The 2009 NBA D-League Draft, which will be held November 5, will be broadcast live on NBA TV and streamed online at nba.com/dleague starting at 7 p.m. Eastern.

Although teams are already preparing for the upcoming season with open tryouts in cities across the country, the 10-round draft is a major step toward forming rosters for the upcoming season, which tipos off November 27.

During the telecast, NBA TV host Rick Kamla will share the stage with NBA D-League Vice President of Basketball Operations and Player Personnel Chris Alpert to provide insight into the draft proceedings and the composition of NBA D-League team rosters.

“The upcoming NBA D-League Draft will feature more than 140 talented prospects, many of whom will have recently competed in NBA training camps and summer leagues,” said Alpert. “If history is any indication, a number of those players drafted in November will go on to have successful NBA D-League and NBA careers.”

The Erie BayHawks have the second overall pick in the draft. Because the draft uses a serpentine format, they will not choose again until the second-to-last selection of round two (selection number 31 overall). Click here for the complete D-League draft order.
