thon maker
while the rules discouraged high school players from entering, starting in the early 2010's, more high schoolers opted to declare entry for the draft with the intent of being selected early. in the 2015 draft, indian-born satnam singh bhamara, who did not qualify academically to go to college, went straight to the nba draft as a post-graduate after being at img academy for five years. he would be taken by the dallas mavericks with the 52nd pick in the draft, thus becoming the first high school student to be drafted since the rule changes. in the 2016 draft, one of the top–10 players that was declared eligible for ncaa play in 2016, thon maker, decided to enter the draft instead as a post-graduate from orangeville prep in orangeville, ontario, canada due to him originally declaring himself as eligible for college in 2015. thon also marked the first player to be drafted directly from a canadian high school, as well as the second player to enter as a post-graduate. he was the first high schooler to be drafted in the first round since 2005, being drafted by the milwaukee bucks with the tenth pick, becoming the first high school lottery pick since 2005. in the 2018 draft, anfernee simons from the img academy was also drafted in the nba with the 24th, with simons being a postgraduate there like bhamara three years prior. in addition, mitchell robinson took a year off after high school due to exiting western kentucky university early without playing there, which left him drafted as the 36th pick. most recently, in 2019, both jalen lecque and darius bazley declared entry and left their names in the draft, with bazley entering without any collegiate or professional play after graduating from high school the previous year. darius bazley was selected as the 23rd pick of that year's draft by the oklahoma city thunder, while jalen lecque went undrafted.
