The NBA and the National Basketball Players Association have agreed to new rules for the pre-NBA draft process, including making players ineligible for the draft if they skip the draft combine. The changes will go into effect in 2024 and will require all invited players to attend and participate in medical examinations, interviews, and other assessments. There will be exceptions for players who are physically unable to participate or have extenuating circumstances.
