Matt Babcock, NBA Draft Analyst for Babcock Hoops, joined Big 12 Today to discuss the top prospects in the Big 12 for the 2026 NBA Draft. He focused on Darryn Peterson and AJ Dybantsa, listing them as 1A and 1B in terms of draft potential. Matt highlighted how their offensive games differ significantly, with Darryn Peterson drawing comparisons to Kobe Bryant in terms of scoring ability and offensive skill, while AJ Dybantsa has been likened to Carmelo Anthony for his versatility and scoring prowess.
He also praised Kingston Flemings, noting that despite being an exceptional player, nobody had him considered a top 5 NBA Draft prospect until now. Matt believes Flemings has earned his way into that conversation through his recent performances.
Regarding JT Toppin, Matt gave him credit for his development at Texas Tech but pointed out that, due to his size and limited ability to stretch the floor, he might face difficulties getting drafted in the first round. However, he is confident that an NBA team will take a chance on him.
As a former sports agent, Matt shared insights on NIL, expressing optimism about its future and discussing how it might evolve in the coming years. Lastly, he provided analysis on what scouts will be looking for in the upcoming BYU vs. Kansas game on Saturday, emphasizing key matchups and player performances that could influence draft evaluations.
