Cameron Boozer and AJ Dybantsa have emerged as potential pro-ready stars among talent-packed high school senior class.
In each of the last two NBA drafts, the story at the top of the board has been a lack of American-born top talent.
First, it was Boozer and Cooper Flagg who drew most of the eyeballs. Flagg jumped up a year into the high school class of 2024 last summer, and other stars like Massachusetts native AJ Dybantsa emerged. Now, Boozer and Dybantsa headline a nucleus of top prospects who have NBA teams salivating, just under two years out from their projected NBA draft day in ’26.
Flagg, who was the talk of USA basketball’s pre-Olympics camp in Las Vegas earlier this month and is now the clear favorite to go No. 1 in the 2025 draft class, will give fans a taste of this influx of star power in ’24–25 while at Duke. He’s just the beginning of a tidal wave of talent, several of whom are expected to get to college basketball in the ’25–26 season.
“He used to be just this gangly deer, and now it’s like he can just toy with guys,” the same scout said. “He can score whenever he wants. He’s defending, the defensive intensity has not dropped off. The other guys are going to have a chance to be the best player in the draft, but my hot take on AJ Dybantsa is that he has a chance to be the best player in the entire league.”has spoken to believe the best playeris Boozer.
Meanwhile, No. 1 2026 high school recruit Tyran Stokes, a teammate of Dybantsa’s on the EYBL circuit, is old enough to reclassify into ’25 and join the ’26 draft class. He was arguably more impressive during the May live period than Boozer or Dybantsa, and longtime college coach turned ESPN analyst Fran Fraschillaafter watching Stokes that the versatile forward “will average 25 in the NBA someday.
