AJ Dybantsa Nike logo details

Dybantsa's brand-new Nike logo features a star, formed by five check marks, a blocky variation of Nike's signature logo. Dybantsa's focus with this logo was to personalize it, using his initials.

"I've always dealt with pressure ever since I was younger. In creating my new logo, Nike and I liked the metaphor of pressure forming diamonds and at the same time forming a star with my initials." Dybantsa told Nike's Aaron Dodson.

The winner of the draft lottery will not be known until May 10, when the order will be fully decided. Safe to say, however, that the teams who receive the top picks will certainly be taking a closer look at AJ Dybantsa's skills and perhaps his new signature logo.
