The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame announced their list of eligible candidates for the Class of 2025 on Thursday evening.
The list includes several high-profile first-time eligible players and coaches including Carmelo Anthony, Dwight Howard, Marc Gasol, Sue Bird, Maya Moore, Lisa Bluder, and Billy Donovan, among others.

The Hall also unveiled an update to their eligibility requirements in the release, stating that they are “reducing the waiting period for Player candidates from three full seasons out of the game to two seasons,” adding, “the change was unanimously approved by the Hall of Fame’s Board of Governors.”
Finalists from each eligible category will be chosen and announced as a part of the NBA’s All-Star Weekend on Feb. 14 in San Francisco.
The entire Class of 2025 will then be unveiled at the NCAA’s Finals Four on April 5 in San Antonio before being officially enshrined at Symphony Hall in Springfield, Mass., on Sept. 6.
