Overview
- Coverage from multiple outlets shows a clear top tier led by AJ Dybantsa with Darryn Peterson, Cameron Boozer and Caleb Wilson widely projected as the likely first four selections.
- AJ Dybantsa is the heavy favorite to go No. 1 to Washington but league sources and mock drafters report the Wizards have not made a formal decision and are still evaluating alternatives.
- Darryn Peterson is widely linked to the Utah Jazz at No. 2, but his spot is contingent on final medical clearances and on-site workouts that teams are completing now.
- The NBA invited Dybantsa, Peterson, Boozer and Wilson to the draft green room, a sign they are trending toward first-round places as teams finalize medicals, interviews and workout impressions.
- Trade speculation around the Clippers, Nets and the Warriors' No. 11 pick keeps the mid-to-late lottery fluid and means that medical reports, workouts and any pre-draft deals could reshape selections before the draft on June 23–24.
