Five-star junior Tyran Stokes delivered yet another brilliant performance on Thursday. In a near-triple-double performance, he scored 21 points with nine rebounds, and eight assists to lead Notre Dame to a 79-58 win against St. Francis.

In an Instagram post by Slam HS on Friday, fans got to see highlights of Stokes's performance in that match, as he was shown dunking, sinking threes, and making some impressive steals.

The first highlight of the hype reel saw him finish an impressive alley-oop, and he flexed to the crowd to celebrate afterward. He then showed his skills on the other end of the court as he blocked an opponent's shot, pinning the ball to the backboard. He also stole the ball from halfcourt and soared for an easy slam.

Stokes also showed off his shooting stroke by knocking down a 3-pointer. He then used his impressive size to overpower his opponents in the paint.

Tyran Stokes is currently the consensus number one player in the 2026 class, per 247Sports and On3. He's been crucial to Notre Dame's performance this season, helping them to a 17-2 record this season. However, the Knights suffered a crushing 76-53 defeat to Columbus on Saturday. The loss snapped the team's four-game winning streak.

For St. Francis, the defeat dropped their record to 13-6, and it is also their second consecutive loss. They'll be hoping to bounce back with a win as they face Crespi, also on Saturday night.

Which college program has the highest chance of landing Tyran Stokes?

Although Stokes is still a Class of 2026 prospect, the race to secure his commitment has already begun, as his performances haven't stopped attracting interest from different college programs.

Currently, the five-star power forward has received 25 offers, including offers from top colleges like Louisville, Kentucky, LSU, Kansas, and Alabama, among others.

According to On3, Louisville is currently the favorite to land Stokes with a 66.8% chance. Stokes was born in the city. Kentucky and Xavier, who are next in line, only have a measly 1.9% and 1.3% chance, respectively.
