AJ Dybantsa, the projected No. 1 pick this summer, has declared for the 2026 NBA draft, he announced on YouTube on Thursday.
In the video, Dybantsa read a letter he wrote when he was 7 years old and hoping to become a basketball player one day. Now, the BYU star will enter this summer’s draft as the top prospect, according to ESPN. He will likely battle Kansas star Darryn Peterson for that top spot.
“See y’all on draft night,” Dybantsa said in the video.
