AJ Dybantsa was the number one recruit coming out of high school before he committed to BYU ahead of the upcoming NCAA basketball season, and even with months ahead before fans actually see him playing meaningful minutes the Cougars have so many reasons to be excited about their young superstar.

Dybantsa was seen on the BYU basketball court recently showing off his insane vertical leap after a video surfaced of the athletic freak jumping with ease with his head reaching way over the rim.

According to 24/7 Sports, the Cougars have the 13th-best recruiting class heading into next season after adding three massive talents, including Dybantsa and two more tall four-star prospects.
