The 2010 NBA Development League expansion draft was the fifth
Los Angeles D-Fenders roster, who had to place their team on hiatus for 2010–11.[1] The Legends were allowed to claim the rights to 10 of Los Angeles' 14 players.[1] Besides the dispersal of the D-Fenders' roster, Texas was also able to draft local talent from the greater Frisco area.[1]
Two of the players that the Legends chose had previously been named
2008 for the Los Angeles Lakers.[3] The four Los Angeles D-Fenders that were not selected by the Legends out of the pool of 14 were Lawrence McKenzie (G), Ray Reese (F), Rodney Webb (F) and Horace Wormely (G).[4]
