Tyran Stokes collegiate basketball career

Overview

Tyran Stokes, the top-ranked basketball recruit in the class of 2026, began his freshman season at the University of Kansas. During an exhibition game against Louisville, Stokes recorded 15 points, nine rebounds, and four assists, though he faced challenges with field goal efficiency.
