The G-League draft is totally independent of the NBA.   A drafted player only has rights to a G-League team and has no affiliation to an NBA team.

In the case of Bazley, since he is only eligble for the NBA Draft next year his rights can only be determined then,     If a player gets drafted who has already been eligible for the NBA draft, he can get called up or signed by any NBA team.

G League Teams (even owned by NBA teams) have two types of players.
1) Players Affiliated with the NBA Team (An NBA team can only have 18 contracts, so the most they will typically have is 5 players affiliated with the NBA team)
2) Players who have the rights with the G-League team, but whose contract is with the G-League and not the NBA.

Players in group #2, can be signed by any of the 30 teams in the NBA.   That being said it is in the interest of finding the right team who will see you play and decide to make you one of their 18 orgazational contracts.
