In September 2017, the KBL announced its confirmed list of 44 participants for the upcoming draft.[1] The order of selection was chosen through two lotteries and announced on October 23.[2][3]Busan KT Sonicboom won the right to the first overall pick and also obtained the second pick via a player trade with Changwon LG Sakers.[3][4]
Traditionally, players joined the draft after completing their senior season and were fourth-year students at their respective universities.[5] This draft marked the first time two freshmen, Yang Hong-seok and Yoo Hyun-jun, were picked so early in the first round, leading observers and pundits to note that "early entry" would likely become a trend in Korean basketball in the future.[6][2][7] Point guard Heo Hoon became the first Yonsei University player since Ha Seung-jin in 2008 to be picked first overall.[8]
In March 2021, Yang and Heo simultaneously recorded double-doubles during the play-offs against Anyang KGC. It marked the first time in KBL history two domestic players from the same team simultaneously recorded double-doubles in a single game.[9]
