suggesting weak defense. The other from our MCBB net points, where he ranks 58th on D among the top 100 prospects. His box stats are great, but his non-box stats aren't.

Jalen Brunson should still be a Maverick and not a New York Knick.

Excited about wingspan?
I took a deep dive into historical data to determine which combine stats actually help predicting NBA impact.
Plus, which prospects helped and hurt their stock the most with their test results

Here are percentile ranks in combine test results for players of the 2026 NBA draft class

Blocks and Fouls aren't the end-all-be-all when it comes to projecting NBA impact from NCAA stats.
But shouldn't we be worried about Dybantsa's defensive intensity?
