AJ Dybantsa, the projected No. 1 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, just won the Big 12 Male Athlete of the Year award — a historic first for BYU. He led the nation in scoring with 894 points (third-most by a freshman in NCAA history), dropped a freshman-record 43 points against Utah, and averaged 25+ points, 6+ rebounds, and 3+ assists per game. His triple-double (33 pts, 10 reb, 10 ast) is a Big 12 rarity. A consensus First Team All-American and Julius Erving Small Forward of the Year, Dybantsa’s elite all-around game proves he’s ready for the pros — with the Washington Wizards already drafting him first overall. He joins an elite group of Big 12 stars who went No. 1, cementing his status as one of college basketball’s brightest stars.
