AJ Dybantsa’s dominant freshman campaign at BYU, where he led the nation in scoring while showcasing elite athleticism, size, and three-level scoring, has cemented him as the consensus top prospect heading into the 2026 NBA Draft. Recent post-combine updates from major scouting services reinforced his edge in versatility and upside over peers. Darryn Peterson’s strong playmaking and scoring at Kansas and Cameron Boozer’s rebounding and interior presence at Duke keep them as the next most likely options, though further back in trader pricing. The Washington Wizards’ lottery win sets the stage for the June selection, with no reported injuries or withdrawals altering the top tier.
