^ Under current NBA draft rules, draftees must also be at least 19 years old during the calendar year of the draft. This will usually happen after a player is one season removed from high school, but not always—under current rules, Brad Daugherty (selected #1 overall in 1986 after a four-year college career at North Carolina) would not have been eligible for the draft until two years after his high school graduation, because he graduated while still 16.
