Following Potential 2026 Draftees

Yaxel is real good, but he already turned 23 this fall. Does he make the first round if he's in the draft?

Yes, absolutely, but he's probably limited on how high he gets drafted based on how good the underclassmen are. I would guess he gets drafted in the 20's which is where most really good upperclassmen get drafted (by good teams looking for more win now talent).

I bet he goes late lotto or teens. Age definitely hurts him but some teams want guys that are closer to being ready.

That sounds a little high based on how well others have played, but I don't think it's out of the questions for sure.

I think he’s had a slow start with the injury… the measurables and production will be too tantalizing for him to slip imo. I think NIL changes the traditional age conversations now.

It’s early but he will likely get a tournament bump because he’s on a good team. I think I’d put him in my personal top 15, but not ready for that exercise yet.
 
Ace Glass (wazzu) probably too small and was under the radar as a ‘25 recruit.

But he put up maybe the smoothest 40 piece I’ve seen at the college level last night. 40 points on 14 FGA.

Reed Sheppard-like shooting so far.
 
Really curious how Stirtz looks through conference play. I think he's pretty good and can play in the NBA, but I also remember Nate Wolters.

Back when the bucks were struggling to find anything to celebrate. We’ve all been there. They drafted Giannis that year too. Hopefully we find our Giannis soon.
 
AJ Dybantsa and BYU will be playing against Miami in about an hour
