The 2019 CBA Draft, the fifth edition of the CBA draft, took place on 29 July 2019 in Shanghai. 16 players were selected in the draft.[5]
All teams except the Bayi Rockets (a club owned by the People's Liberation Army) can have two foreign players. The bottom two teams from the previous season (except Bayi) have the additional right to sign an extra Asian player.
The rules for using foreign players in each game are described in this chart:
# | Facing other teams | Facing Bayi Rockets |
---|---|---|
Chinese players+ | No Limit | No Limit |
Asian players++ | 4 quarters collectively+++ | |
International players | 6 quarters collectively+++ |
+ Including players from Hong Kong and Taiwan.
++ If a team waives its right to sign an extra Asian player, it may use its 2 foreign players for 7 quarters collectively.
+++ Only 1 allowed in the 4th quarter.
This is the full list of international players competing in the CBA during the 2019–20 season. One major change is that many teams began to actively sign "reserve" imports this season to provide insurance for injuries. Players who sign contracts but are not actually playing will be listed under the heading of "Inactive Or Replaced" during the 2019–20 season. Those who never actually play in games before the end of the season will have their names removed from this list when the season ends.
