The next batch of college basketball stars is getting ready to step into the light. A lot of them have committed already and are locked in and ready to go ahead of the new season. AJ Dybantsa is one of the most popular names in the 2025 recruiting class.
Dybantsa is the number one recruit in the 2025 class, and he’s playing college ball at BYU next season. He visited the campus earlier this month in a bid to acclimatize with the environment where he’ll be showcasing his talents for at least the next year.

AJ Dybantsa Gets Honest During His BYU Visit
Dybantsa visited BYU campus and vlogged his experience, posting it on his YouTube channel. Through his lens, he took fans on a tour of the program’s facilities, and he introduced some of the staff he’ll be working with over the next few months. He even put in a few workout reps.
Dybantsa also revealed a part of his chill and laid-back personality as he attempted to do a dance on his vlog, but he did admit that he’s a terrible dancer.
“No balance, terrible energy,” he said when attempting a dance routine.
Dybantsa also did a Q&A session with the fans where he mentioned he would be picking a business major at BYU. He also mentioned that he doesn’t like the cold at Provo.
Dybantsa, who will wear No. 3 at BYU, will be draft eligible next year and is currently projected to be the No. 1 overall pick.
Dybantsa grew up in Massachusetts and was named the Massachusetts Boys’ Basketball Gatorade Player of the Year following his freshman season for Saint Sebastian school after averaging 19.1 points, 9.6 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and 2.5 blocks per game.

Dybantsa is not new to the national team, as he was a gold medalist with the U17 National Team in Turkey last summer, and as well as with the U16 squad in Mexico in 2023.
