List of first overall NBL Canada draft picks

Morgan Lewis was draft pick in league history.

The National Basketball League of Canada's first overall pick is the player who is selected first among all eligible draftees by a team during the annual National Basketball League of Canada (NBL Canada) Draft. The first pick is, on most occasions, awarded to the team that finished with the worst record in the previous season. Teams may be allowed to select earlier in the case that they make a trade during or prior to the event.[1] Only one first overall draft pick, Alex Johnson, previously played at an NCAA Division I school. Johnson attended North Carolina State University.[2]
