Two NBA draft withdrawal deadlines are coming up, ahead of the June 22 draft.
On Wednesday, players who were early entrants from the NCAA and were feeling out interest while still maintaining eligibility can withdraw from the draft.
In addition, players who early-entered into the draft can withdraw through June 12. However, this category of players renounced eligibility to play in the NCAA. The majority of players in this category will likely land in either the G League or head to play overseas before making a run at the NBA.

Players who have foregone the draft ahead of NBA draft withdrawal deadline
