The G League Elite Camp has been utilized through the years as an extension of the NBA pre-draft process for many prospects who are not necessarily at the top of their potential draft class. It is also a chance for players who declared as early entrants to get feedback before making a final decision on whether to turn professional or remain in college.
Talents like Jose Alvarado, Max Strus and Terance Mann are just a few of the NBA players who stood out at this event through the years and improved their draft stock.
The list of this year's participants is highlighted by Kentucky's Jacob Toppin, the younger brother of New York Knicks forward Obi Toppin, Michigan State's Joey Hauser, the younger brother of Boston Celtics wing Sam Hauser, Kansas State's Markquis Nowell and G League Ignite's Mojave King, who participated in the 2023 Jordan Rising Stars event during All-Star weekend.
The NBA Draft Lottery will be held on May 16, the same day the NBA Draft Combine begins, with the 2023 NBA Draft set to take place in Barclays Center on June 22.
