NBA scouts have been all-in on Dybantsa for years. At 6’9 with a 7’1 wingspan, the Boston native is an explosive athlete with a rare combination of speed and power at his size while also showcasing a sweet jumper. Dybantsa joins Kansas commit Darryn Peterson and Duke commit Cameron Boozer to form a ridiculously good ‘big three’ atop the 2026 NBA Draft. It feels like NBA teams would rather have the No. 3 pick in 2026 than the No. 1 pick in many years.
Reese is listed at 6’3. It’s no easy task to jump over someone that tall, but Dybantsa cleared her with just a little push-off.

Reese of course has a big endorsement deal with McDonald’s. Did Dybantsa and Reese practice this one? Did Reese just trust him to pull it off? It drew all 10s from the judges either way.
Somehow, this wasn’t enough to win the McDonald’s dunk contest. Baylor commit Tounde Yessoufou won the McDonald’s All-American Game dunk contest with some great throw-downs of his own. You can watch the whole thing here.
Reese showed big improvements in Unrivaled this winter after a solid WNBA rookie season. We can’t wait to see what she does for the Chicago Sky in year two. Dybantsa’s freshman season should be cinema at BYU. The future of hoops is in good hands.
