According to Hoops Wire, high school standout Darryn Peterson may no longer be viewed as the top prospect in his class, with several early NBA draft boards now placing fellow prep star AJ Dybantsa ahead of him.
The report, citing unnamed evaluators, indicates that recent scouting updates have elevated Dybantsa’s stock, nudging Peterson into a trailing position. No specific rankings, timelines, or additional details were provided, and both players remain eligible for future drafts rather than the 2024 pool.
While draft projections frequently fluctuate in the seasons leading up to eligibility, the shift underscores growing interest in Dybantsa’s development and could influence how NBA front offices monitor both prospects moving forward.
