The Roar front office and coaching staff are currently at the 2026 TBL League Meetings in Indianapolis, Indiana. Prospective players, hoping for a professional contract, will meet with all teams before showcasing Saturday and Sunday. On Sunday evening, all TBL teams will have a 1st round and 2nd round draft pick. Players selected will have the opportunity to attend their team's training camp. The TBL Draft in recent years has seen many players move on to higher leagues overseas or the NBA G-League.

"There's some serious talent here," said Roar general manager Derrick Hammonds.

The TBL Combine and Draft will see around 200 players, all looking for a shot at playing professional basketball.

The Roar will make the selections during the 2026 TBL Draft on Sunday evening. Those players will join contracted players, free agent invites, and camp invites at the Roar Preseason Training Camp in Las Vegas, NV on February 5-8. The team has partnered with The STRAT Tower & Casino, Las Vegas Events, and Dynamic Gaming Solutions to host the 25 prospective players that will be on the Roar's training camp roster.
