BYU's AJ Dybansta shows off skills in McDonald's All-American Game

AJ Dybantsa took center stage at the McDonald’s All-American Game on Tuesday night, putting his elite skill set on full display.

The nation’s top basketball recruit and future BYU Cougar finished with an impressive 17 points, shooting 7-of-12 from the field, while also contributing five rebounds and an assist in 24 minutes on the floor. Dybantsa's performance helped lead the West squad to a 105-92 victory over the East, capping off a night where he proved why he’s considered the best player in the 2025 recruiting class.

Dybantsa showcased the attributes that make him one of the most exciting prospects in recent memory. His ability to attack the rim is unmatched, making even the most difficult finishes look routine.

One of the night’s most memorable plays came when Dybantsa used a smooth Euro step to create separation before finishing at the basket, drawing admiration from fans and scouts alike. His athleticism, fluid movement, and creativity were on full display, reaffirming why he is projected as a future NBA lottery pick.

Beyond the game, Dybantsa also shined in the Sprite Jam Fest, where he wowed the crowd with a highlight-reel dunk, soaring over WNBA star Angel Reese. His combination of explosiveness was on display for the 'perfect 50' slam.
