Seven NBA players had their options declined. Here’s what happens next
Breaking down seven 2024 NBA Draft picks whose options were declined, why teams moved on, what history tells us, and who can still thrive.
On the HoopsHype show, hosts Cyro Asseo and Sam Yip discussed the seven players from the 2024 NBA draft class who had their fourth-year options declined. Together, the total value of these options amounted to approximately $46.7 million. The deadline for declining these options was Monday, November 2nd, which was moved from its usual date of October 31st due to the latter falling on a weekend.
When a team declines a player's option, the player stays with the team for the remainder of the season and becomes an unrestricted free agent in the summer of 2027, unless a trade occurs.
