Tyran Stokes, the five-star prospect, has yet again gained the attention of fans as he accomplishes another milestone. In his debut match at Hoophall West Classic, Stokes’ 20-point contribution might not have helped his team win, but it landed him in the 1000-point club in high school basketball, with 1,003 points.
In an Instagram post shared by Ballislife on Friday, Stokes is featured in the photo with the caption “1,000 POINT CLUB!!” In the following clip from the game, he is seen dribbling smoothly past the defenders and scoring buckets.
“@_thetyranstokes opened up @hoophallclassic with 20 Pts & 8 Reb to put him at 1,003 total points in his High School career 😤😤,” the caption said.
A post by Courtside Films on Friday also highlighted Stokes’ all-round play.
On Thursday, the Hoophall West Classic began with round-robin games with six teams among the top 25 nationally-ranked teams. Layton Christian Academy closely edged out Notre Dame 54-53 in the second game. The game's deciding moment was senior center Albert Ntungicimpaye scoring a game-winning basket in the final 10 seconds.
Tyrin Jones, with 14 points and 10 rebounds, along with Alan Gballou, who contributed 13 points and 12 rebounds, led the Eagles. For Notre Dame, Stokes tallied 20 points on 7-of-19 shooting, eight rebounds, three steals, and two blocks.
