The NBA G League will hold the 2018 NBA GLPI Invited Player Session in Chicago on Sunday, August 12. This event will challenge NBA G League hopefuls, via full-court games, to showcase their skills for NBA G League player personnel, executives, coaches and industry scouts with the hopes of securing an NBA Training Camp invite or gaining eligibility for the NBA G League Draft in October.
Last year, 13 players received NBA training camp invites after attending the event and multiple players were later called up including Rodney Purvis, Jaylen Morris, Jaylen Johnson and Troy Caupain.
