AJ Dybantsa has yet to debut with the BYU Cougars, but he’s making big moves off the court. The potential No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft is one of the most exciting prospects the league has seen in recent years and several companies placed their attention on the forward. 

His latest endeavor features one of the biggest sports platforms. Fanatics Collectibles reportedly signed Dybantsa to a deal, Eric Jackson of Sportico shared on Wednesday. 

Dybantsa became a millionaire after signing this deal, with a source revealing that the deal is worth eight figures. Dybantsa, one of the most sought-after prospects ahead of the 2025-26 NCAA season, should have a popular trading card once they start coming out.
