General information | |
Date(s) | June 25, 2009 |
Time | 7:00 pm (EDT) |
Location | Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York |
Network(s) | ESPN |
The 2009 NBA Draft will be held on June 25, 2009, at the WaMu Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The draft, which starts at 7:00 pm Eastern Daylight Time (23:00 UTC), will be broadcast in the United States on ESPN.[1] The first overall pick will be made by the Los Angeles Clippers, who won the draft lottery on May 19, 2009.[2]
Eligibility
The basic requirements for draft eligibility are:[3]
- All drafted players must be born on or before December 31, 1990.
The CBA defines "international players" as players who permanently resided outside the U.S. for three years prior to the draft, did not complete high school in the U.S., and have never enrolled at a U.S. college or university.[4]
Automatic eligibility
The basic requirement for automatic eligibility for a U.S. player is the completion of his college eligibility.[5] Players who meet the CBA definition of "international players" are automatically eligible if their 22nd birthday falls during or before the calendar year of the draft (i.e., born on or before December 31, 1987).[6] U.S. players who were at least one year removed from their high school graduation and have played professional basketball with a team outside the NBA were also automatically eligible. Former high school player Brandon Jennings meets these criteria, having graduated high school in 2008, skipped college basketball and then played professional basketball in Italy.[7]
Early entrants
A player who is not automatically eligible must declare his eligibility for the draft by notifying the NBA offices in writing no later than 60 days before the draft.[8][9] For the 2009 draft, this date fell on April 26. An early entry candidate is allowed to withdraw his eligibility for the draft by notifying the NBA offices in writing no later than 10 days before the draft.[10] This year, a total of 74 collegiate players and 29 international players declared as early entry candidates.[11] At the withdrawal deadline, 55 early entry candidates withdrew from the draft, leaving 39 collegiate players and 10 international players as the early entry candidates for the draft.[12]
A player who has hired an agent will forfeit his remaining college eligibility, regardless of whether he is drafted. Also, while the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) between the league and its players' union allows a player to withdraw from the draft twice,[10] the NCAA mandates that a player who has declared twice loses his college eligibility. This second provision affects Chase Budinger, Wayne Ellington, and Ty Lawson, all of whom declared for and withdrew from the 2008 draft.

Lottery
The lottery selection to determine the order of the top fourteen picks in the 2009 NBA Draft occurred on May 19, 2009.[46] The Los Angeles Clippers won the first pick, while the Memphis Grizzlies and Oklahoma City Thunder moved up to second and third picks respectively. The Sacramento Kings and Washington Wizards, who had the two best chances to land a top-three pick, fell down to the fourth and fifth spots, the lowest possible picks they could be awarded through the lottery.[2] The remaining first-round picks and all the second-round picks were assigned to teams in reverse order of their win-loss records in the previous season. As is commonplace in the event of identical win-loss records, the NBA performed a random drawing to break the ties on April 17, 2009.[47]
