Zach Edey has declared for the 2024 NBA draft. 

"I felt like it was time," Edey said. "I showed that I'm a physical presence on offense this season," Edey said. "I also showed I can play defense. I can guard in space, even defend guards."

Edey is one of the most decorated players in college basketball history, the first to win unanimous National Player of the Year honors since Bill Walton in 1973. He led the nation in scoring at 24.9 points per game, and finished third in rebounding at 12.2.

ESPN ranks Edey as the 14th best prospect in the draft class.

Six ties among teams with identical regular-season records were broken today through random drawings to determine the order of selection for NBA Draft 2024.

The drawings were conducted by NBA President of League Operations Byron Spruell at the NBA office in Secaucus, New Jersey. The tiebreaker process was overseen by Marc Dieli, a partner from the accounting firm of Ernst & Young.

The results of the drawings:

• The Charlotte Hornets (21-61) won a tiebreaker with the Portland Trail Blazers.

• The Sacramento Kings (46-36) won a tiebreaker with the Golden State Warriors.

• The Philadelphia 76ers (47-35) won a tiebreaker with the Indiana Pacers, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Orlando Magic. Second, third, and fourth place in the tiebreaker drawings went to the Los Angeles Lakers, Orlando, and Indiana, respectively.

• The Milwaukee Bucks (49-33) won a tiebreaker with the New Orleans Pelicans and the Phoenix Suns. Second and third place in the tiebreaker drawings went to Phoenix and New Orleans, respectively.

• The Dallas Mavericks (50-32) won a tiebreaker with the New York Knicks.

• The Denver Nuggets (57-25) won a tiebreaker with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Cody Williams has declared for the 2024 NBA draft, leaving Colorado after his freshman season.

Williams is a projected lottery pick as one of college basketball's best defenders. Williams is the younger brother of Jalen Williams of the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Williams averaged 11.9 points, three rebounds and 1.9 assists on 55.2 percent shooting in 24 game for the Buffaloes.

Williams ranks No. 19 on ESPN's list of Top 100 prospects. 

Second round picks have become such a frequently traded commodity that only four teams own their own selection in this year's draft.

The Miami Heat, Orlando Magic, Sacramento Kings and San Antonio Spurs are the four teams who currently retain their second round pick.

While there are various pick protections in place that could come into play, there are currently only seven teams who still control their second round pick for 2025.

For the first time in league history, the second round will be broadcast on its own day separate from the first round.

Reed Sheppard has announced he will leave Kentucky to enter the 2024 NBA draft. Sheppard is expected to be a lottery pick.

Sheppard averaged 12.5 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.5 assists in 28.9 minutes in his freshman season at Kentucky. 

Alex Sarr has declared for the 2024 NBA draft.

Sarr is currently the No. 2 rated prospect by ESPN and will receive consideration at No. 1.

Sarr averaged 9.4 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 17 minutes per game while playing for Perth in the NBL.

"I had a great year playing professional basketball in the NBL," Sarr told ESPN. "There was a lot of growth in my game and as a person. I'm ready for the next step so it was obvious for me to declare for the draft. I'm grateful for the year I spent in the NBL with the Perth Wildcats."

The New Orleans Pelicans are expected to give the Los Angeles Lakers their first-round pick this year and take the Lakers' first-round pick in 2025, according to Kevin O'Connor of The Ringer.

The Pelicans have the option to take one of the Lakers' picks as a result of the Anthony Davis trade.

"People around the league expect that the Pelicans will give the Lakers their pick this year and take the 2025 pick.

"If that’s the case, it’s hard to fathom that Los Angeles would use the pick on Bronny [James]. Rob Pelinka is far more likely to use it to chase Trae Young or another star in a trade," wrote O'Connor.

Isaiah Collier will enter the 2024 NBA draft and leave USC after his freshman season.

Collier will be represented by agent B.J. Armstrong of Wasserman. 

Collier is currently the No. 11 prospect in the 2024 NBA draft based on ESPN's projections.

Collier was the No. 1 high school recruit in the country out of Wheeler High School in Marietta, Georgia.

Rob Dillingham will enter the 2024 NBA draft and forgo his remaining collegiate eligibility. Dillingham is the No. 4 prospect in ESPN's draft projections. 

Dillingham has signed a representation agreement with Klutch Sports Group agency.

"This was a decision I made with my family," Dillingham told ESPN on Monday. "I felt prepared. Coach Calipari taught me a lot about how to be a better teammate and that it was not all about me."

Dillingham entered the season as a projected first-round pick but quickly showed he's possibly the most talented freshman in college basketball.

RealGM Prospect Report: Rob Dillingham

Bronny James is expected to enter the college basketball transfer portal following his freshman season at USC. Andy Enfield left USC for the head coaching vacancy at SMU.

“At the end of the day, Bronny’s his own man,” said LeBron James when asked about his son on Tuesday.

“He has some tough decisions to make, and when he’s ready to make those decisions, he’ll let us all know. But as his family, we’re going to support whatever he does.”

James averaged 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 25 games this season.

In February, ESPN moved James to the 39th pick in their 2025 NBA mock draft. Before his health issue last July and his freshman season at USC, James was regarded as a possible lottery pick.
