AJ Dybantsa, the undisputed face of college basketball, may return to BYU after declaring for the NBA draft on May 1 and May 27. The deadline to declare for the draft is May 1, with the deadline to notify the school if he is returning is May 27, and the draft itself is June 25-26. The decision comes with two big questions: If he chose to return to college, he would lose his brand, including Nike, Red Bull and Topps trading cards, and a potential financial impact on his brand. Dybantantsa's parents, Ace and Chelsea, are deep, faith-based thinkers and invested in the lives of their three children. They are committed to doing what is best for their children and believe college is a place for personal growth and enjoyment, especially for professional sports.
