AJ Dybantsa Hopes To Play With Spurs, Victor Wembanyama In NBA
A.J. Dybantsa is the projected top prospect for the 2026 NBA Draft. Dybantsa has committed to BYU for next season. While attending the NBA Paris Games, the 6-foot-9 forward told ESPN he'd like to play with Victor Wembanyama for the San Antonio Spurs when he enters the NBA.
"I think Victor is just ridiculous; the things he does are just crazy," Dybantsa said. "I just think we would've been a crazy duo. Now the odds of that happening are very slim. But I mean, it was just a thought that came up in my mind when he got drafted. But you never know."
Dybantsa said his goal is to be the first overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft. To get there, he said one of his focuses is working on his three-point shot, which will continue while at BYU next season.
"I'm working on improving my shot. I'm trying to shoot 40% from the three-point line," Dybantsa said. "Obviously I've got to extend my range because the farther up I go, the farther the line gets."
