Five-star wing Tyran Stokes commits to Kansas
By ADAM ZAGORIA
Five-star wing Tyran Stokes is headed to Kansas, he announced Tuesday on ESPN.
The 6-foot-7 Stokes, the No. 1-ranked recruit in the Class of 2026, chose Bill Self and the Jayhawks over Mark Pope and Kentucky. Stokes is signed with Nike, while Kansas is an adidas school.
ESPN analyst Cory Alexander said that he believes Stokes is more offensively skilled at this stage of his career than some NBA All-Stars were during their high school days.
“I believe at this stage alone that Tyran is more offensively skilled than Scottie Barnes was at this time,” Alexander said recently on air. “I believe that he is very similar to Cade [Cunningham]…When you look at Tyran…he’s going to be a point at the highest level.”
