Age is just a number for the youngest players in [NBA ](https://oddspedia.com/ca/basketball/usa/nba)history. While they might not be as mature physically, emotionally and mentally as most of their teammates and opponents, there have been several 18 year old players that debuted in the NBA at that ripe age.

None have been younger than Andrew Bynum, who made his debut for the Los Angeles Lakers at 18 years and six days old. Due to new NBA Draft eligibility rules, Bynum’s record will likely never be topped under the current structure.

> Bynum was drafted inside the top 10 of the 2005 NBA Draft at 17 years old. He was the youngest player to ever be drafted at the time.

Looking at the league today, there are several 19 year old players that are playing roles on NBA teams.
