Top 2026 NBA Draft Prospects
The consensus top four prospects include small forward AJ Dybantsa, combo guard Darryn Peterson, point guard Darius Acuff Jr., and power forward Cameron Boozer. These four guys can merge as superstars in the NBA alongside a few others. Outside of the top four, other top freshmen include Caleb Wilson, Keaton Wagler, Kingston Flemmings, Koa Peat, and more. To say the least, talent is everywhere in this draft.
Dybantsa, out of Brigham Young University, is a generational talent, no doubt about it. The 19-year-old, 6’9″ small forward freshman has all the tools in the shed. His athleticism gives him the ability to play any position on the floor at a high level. He has handles, defense, and a jump shot. Impressive scoring abilities and shot-creating skills at his size are rare. Averaging an insane 25.5 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game, this guy is the number one pick. Dybantsa also won the Julius Erving Award this season, as the best college basketball small forward.
