Every year, the NBA Draft features top talent showcased in past Maui Invitational fields. Many revere the three days spent at the Lahaina Civic Center as a glimpse of what's to come at the NCAA March Madness. While March in 2019 looked a little different for college basketball fans, the 2019 Maui Jim Maui Invitational lived up to its reputation for bringing top talent to the island.

The 2020 No. 1 Draft Pick for the Minnesota Timberwolves went to Anthony Edwards, Maui Invitational alum who joined the 2019 field with the Georgia Bulldogs under Head Coach Tom Crean. Edwards earned a 18.3 PPG at the 2019 Tournament. Edwards marks the fifth time in Tournament history in which a Maui Invitational alum went first in the NBA Draft, and second consecutive No. 1 pick following Zion Williamson in 2019.
