AJ Dybantsa tops NBC Sports' 2026 NBA Draft Big Board rankings

Summary

NBC Sports released its 2026 NBA Draft Big Board, showcasing AJ Dybantsa from BYU leading the rankings ahead of the draft on June 23 in Brooklyn. Dybantsa is joined by Kansas' Darryn Peterson, Duke's Cameron Boozer, and North Carolina's Caleb Wilson as top prospects. Many view this draft as one of the deepest in years, with a clear tier of talent among the top four players. Teams expected to pick later in the first round may have difficulty finding prospects of similar quality. The focus will likely shift to guards after the top four, with several players standing out during the college season.
