Insiders I spoke with this week think Dybantsa is the …

Let’s start at the top, because that’s what we do when it comes to the NBA Draft. And in the 2026 version of the draft, that “top” isn’t one or two players. It’s four. Talking to executives here for the league’s annual draft combine, including some from multiple teams picking near the top, the consensus opinion was that reasonable people could disagree on the top four picks, in virtually any order, but the identity of those four was beyond doubt: BYU forward AJ Dybantsa, Kansas guard Darryn Peterson, Duke big man Cameron Boozer and North Carolina forward Caleb Wilson. The way the draft lottery was presented, that may not have been immediately obvious. It seemed a bit like the Dybantsa Sweepstakes, and Wilson was scarcely mentioned. Certainly, insiders I spoke with this week think Dybantsa is the best bet of the four to be the top pick, but not one person I talked to considers him a lock.
