NEW YORK, March 5, 2019 – The 2019 NBA 2K League Draft was held today at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, as 75 players were selected and all 21 teams finalized their rosters ahead of the league’s second season.
Jazz Gaming selected Spencer “Ria” Wyman of Shoreline, Washington, with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2019 NBA 2K League Draft. Warriors Gaming Squad selected Samuel “Gradient” Salyers with the second pick. With the third pick, Kings Guard Gaming chose Michael “Bp” Diaz.
History was made in the fourth round when Chiquita “Chiquitae126” Evans was selected 56th overall by Warriors Gaming Squad, becoming the first woman drafted into the NBA 2K League.
There were four international players selected in the 2019 NBA 2K League Draft: Daniel “DT” Tlais (Canada; 29th overall to Magic Gaming), Jack “Jaacko” Stevenson (New Zealand; 50th overall to Pistons GT), Jomar “Jomar12” Varela-Escapa (Puerto Rico; 71st overall to Blazer5 Gaming), and Harry “HazzaUK2K” Hurst (United Kingdom; 75th overall to Knicks Gaming).
