BYU prospect AJ Dybantsa and Kansas standout Darryn Peterson have completed significant formal visits with teams at the top of the draft order ahead of the upcoming June 23-24 NBA Draft, per @ShamsCharania.
According to reports, AJ Dybantsa has conducted formal meetings and visits with both the Washington Wizards, who hold the No. 1 overall pick, and the Utah Jazz, who are currently slated to pick at No. 2 overall. These visits represent critical evaluation periods for the two franchises holding the highest selections in the draft as they weigh their options for the top of the board later this month.
Meanwhile, Darryn Peterson from Kansas has maintained a more restricted schedule during the pre-draft process. Sources indicate that Peterson has visited only the Washington Wizards thus far. Furthermore, Peterson reportedly does not plan to grant any other NBA teams a meeting or a visit prior to the draft event on June 23-24.
The Washington Wizards (No. 1) and Utah Jazz (No. 2) are currently positioned as the primary decision-makers at the start of the draft. The news of these formal visits provides a clearer picture of the landscape as the league prepares for the two-day event. As teams finalize their scouting reports and internal rankings, the activity of AJ Dybantsa and Darryn Peterson remains a focal point for league observers and officials across the NBA.
