Squaring off against Columbus at The Border League in Las Vegas, the 6-foot-9, 210-pound Dybantsa tallied 28 points, four rebounds, and two assists to ensure Utah Prep prevailed, 69-68, thus avoiding another loss to the twin sons of 2001 Duke basketball national champ Carlos Boozer. AJ Dybantsa outduels the Boozer bros, finishing with 28 and some more beautiful iso scoring tape. Effortless shot creation with how high he elevates on jumpers at 6'9".
