A.J. Dybansta joins the TNT Crew for the NBA!

Kenny Smith not only shouts out Utah Prep stand out forward A J Dybansta, he also brings him onto the set during the end of a nba.com on tnt.com episode earlier this year. Kenny even indirectly compares A.J. to Dirk Nowitski, which is a humongous complement, and has to put a lot of pressure on the 17 year old.

utahprep.com is one of the more than 20 teams joining the Eibcleague.com in the 2024-25 season. Dybansta took his talents to utahprep.com this year after playing for prolificprep.com up in Napa California last year. Born in 2007 the 6'9" small forward is ranked #1 on all sports media top player lists, from @247sports.com to @maxpreps.com. Originally from Brockton, Massachusetts AJ has been making a name for himself since 2023 with his performance at the nike.com Peach Jam where he put up 25.8 points per game as a member of the Expressions Elite.

ESPN.com says he looks like the #1 NBA draft pick for 2026 after his showing at the USA Basketball Junior National Team Minicamp. At 6'9" with a 7'0" wingspan he's already built like an nba.com pro, and he plays with an insatiable drive and knows how to get to the basket. We hope to see his exemplary skills with the eibcleague.com playing alongside studs like JJ Mandequit and Cameron Boozer @utahprep.com throughout this 2024-2025 season. Season starts November 15th, where dreams are built, @eibcleague.com.
