Los Angeles Knight Riders bolstered their squad with some strategic draft picks. In the first round, they selected wicketkeeper-batter Adithya Ganesh, followed by all-rounder Corné Dry in the eighth round and left-arm orthodox Derone Davis in the 10th.

The Rookie (U23) round saw the addition of Matthew Tromp, representing an investment in young local talent. Chaitanya Bishnoi was picked during the supplementary draft as another promising addition to the team.

The Los Angeles Knight Riders have significantly strengthened their squad with top international signings. Shakib Al Hasan brings balance and versatility, while Joshua Little adds sheer pace and accuracy to the bowling attack.
