BYU is close to finalizing the enrollment of 7'5" center Xu Xin, a defensive anchor whose size and rebounding could reshape the team's interior game.

Keba Keita, a former BYU basketball player, is actively participating in the NBA pre-draft process, working out with multiple teams despite being ranked No. 82 on NBA Draft Room’s big board. Known for his athleticism and defensive skills, Keita averaged impressive stats in the G League combine and during his time at BYU.
