Despite health issues at Kansas that impacted his season, NBA teams remain optimistic about Peterson’s long-term potential, comparing him to Devin Booker. Dybantsa, who led Division I in scoring at BYU, has drawn comparisons to Kawhi Leonard and Jaylen Brown. Duke’s Cameron Boozer ranks third, with teams like the Wizards and Jazz uncertain about their draft choices.
