The 2024 CEBL Draft, the 6th edition of the Canadian Elite Basketball League's annual draft, was announced on April 11th, 2024. The 10 teams of the CEBL took turns selecting U Sports and Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association athletes to add to their rosters. The first overall selection was made by the Montreal Alliance, who selected 2024 U Sports Men's Basketball Championship MVP Ismaël Diouf of the Laval Rouge et Or. The 2024 Draft marked the first time teams could select student-athletes from the CCAA, with Jerry Jr. Mercury of Mohawk College becoming the first such selection (30th overall to the Niagara River Lions).

The draft order for the first round is determined by how the teams finished in the 2023 CEBL season, with the last-placed Montreal Alliance obtaining the 1st overall pick.

The draft order for the first round was determined as follows:

1. Montreal Alliance

3. Saskatchewan Rattlers
4. Vancouver Bandits
5. Edmonton Stingers
6. Scarborough Shooting Stars
7. Ottawa Blackjacks
