The NBA D-League held their expansion draft for three new teams who are joining the league this season. The Greensboro Swarm (Charlotte Hornets), the Long Island Nets (Brooklyn Nets), and the Windy City Bulls (Chicago Bulls) all made 12 selections in the expansion draft. The team will hold the rights to the selected players for two seasons.
The players that could be selected in the draft were a pool of prospects from D-League rosters from the past two years. Each returning team was able to protect up to 10 of their current players from being selected.
