AJ Dybantsa, the No. 1 prospect in the Class of 2025 and the projected No. 1 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, began his official visit to Kansas this weekend.
The 6-foot-9 wing from Utah Prep was greeted with a huge “Welcome AJ Dybantsa” sign and a tour of Adams Alumni Center.
“Bill Self is a winner,” Ace Dybantsa, AJ’s father, previously told ZAGSBLOG. “Nothing else to say. I like his system. I spoke to coach [Kurtis] Townsend. I spoke to coach Self. And I like what they were saying. So I agreed to give them a shot.”
Kansas and BYU visited Dybantsa last week at Utah Prep, as did Baylor head coach Scott Drew and his staff.AJ Dybantsa is on his official to @KUHoops and gets greeted with a huge 'Welcome AJ Dybantsa' sign at famed Allen Fieldhouse
