The 2026 NBA Draft Combine has concluded, with 72 prospects seeing their draft stock rise or fall based on performances and measurements in Chicago. The Washington Wizards hold the No. 1 pick and are projected to select BYU wing AJ Dybantsa, though rumors suggest a possible trade down for additional assets. Dybantsa is described as an athletic two-way wing with height and vertical leap advantages over Duke’s Cameron Boozer. The Utah Jazz are projected to draft Kansas guard Darryn Peterson, presented as a combine mystery. The Memphis Grizzlies are projected to select Duke’s Cameron Boozer, with size and wingspan framed as support for playing center. The Bulls are noted as holding picks at No. 4 and No. 15 while building a new roster.
"The 2026 NBA Draft Combine is now in the rearview. Of the 72 attendant prospects, several players have their stocks rise and fall thanks to their performances and measurements in Chicago."
"1. Washington Wizards: AJ Dybantsa, SF, BYU Dybantsa has long been considered the top candidate to be selected with the No. 1 pick - although rumors have been swirling that the Wizards could actually look to trade down for another lottery selection and more future assets."
"The athletic, two-way wing is actually taller than Duke power forward Cameron Boozer, standing at 6-foot-8.5 to Boozer's 6-foot-8.25, while also having a way more impressive vertical (42 inches to Boozer's 35 inches)."
"3. Memphis Grizzlies: Cameron Boozer, PF/C, Duke Although he may lack Caleb Wilson's athleticism, Boozer's 7-foot-1.5 wingspan and 253-pound weight may give him the necessary mass to actually play at the five spot. Memphis is a team in transition."
