During the month following the expansion draft (exact dates TBA), each of the 21 teams that competed in 2019 will have the opportunity to retain additional players. Teams will retain players by forfeiting draft picks in the 2020 Draft. Subject to NBA 2K League rules, all players who are not retained will be automatically eligible for the 2020 Draft.
There will be two trade windows during the 2020 season. Each team will be allowed to trade a total of five trade assets during the 2020 season. Trade assets include players, 2020 draft picks and 2021 draft picks.
- Trade period 1: Month following the expansion draft (Friday, October 18th – Monday, November 18th)
- Trade period 2: One month prior to the 2020 Draft through week 12 of the 2020 season (exact dates TBA)
All trades must have a 1:1 trade asset ratio. Teams cannot trade two picks for one player or vice versa. Multi-team trades are allowed.
