Darryn Peterson will only visit 1 team ahead of the NBA draft

[ASFN Admin]

With the NBA season officially in the rear view mirror, the focus shifts to the NBA draft and the number one overall selection. Former Kansas Jayhawks star Darryn Peterson is also locked in on the top spot, it would seem.

Reports indicate that Peterson will only meet with the Washington Wizards ahead of the NBA draft, who hold the first pick. Fellow potential first overall pick AJ Dybansta will meet with the Wizards and the Utah Jazz, who hold the second overall pick.

While certain teams may be less inclined to select a player if they don't meet beforehand, it might not mean that Peterson is in for a precipitous fall if Washington doesn't pick him. The Jazz selected Ace Bailey last year without a visit at pick five.

Developments ahead of the June 23-24 NBA draft: BYU's AJ Dybantsa has conducted formal visits with both the Washington Wizards (No. 1) and Utah Jazz (No. 2) while Kansas' Darryn Peterson only visited the Wizards and does not plan to grant anyone else a meeting, sources tell me…

Peterson is a fixture in the top three of many mock drafts. The first round of the NBA draft is scheduled for June 23.
