Quoted from an article by Chance Linton posted on TheBootleg (247Sports) dated July 7. The key information lies in the second paragraph.
“The 2020 NBA Draft was originally scheduled to take place on June 25 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. But the draft date has been pushed back to Oct. 16 and the NBA Draft Lottery is expected to be held on Aug. 25, assuming the regular season resumes as scheduled on July 30.
"As a result of the dates being pushed back, the NCAA has announced the deadline for players to withdraw their names from the draft and retain their college eligibility will be 10 days after the NBA Draft Combine or Aug. 3, whichever comes first.
"Due to an NCAA rule change instituted last year, players are allowed to hire an agent without forfeiting their college eligibility. Players can also elect to return to school if they go undrafted, but this rule only applies to players who participate in the NBA Draft Combine.”
