"Tyran Stokes is already the top-ranked hoops prospect in the SportsCenter NEXT 100, but after debuting at wide receiver last weekend with Notre Dame High School (California), he could be well on his way to five-star status on the gridiron as well. The 6-foot-7, 230-pounder posted 57 receiving yards and a touchdown in a 57-14 romp of Culver City High School (California) on Sept. 26. Now, Stokes will slide back over to the hardwood in the Border League on Sunday (9 p.m. ET, ESPN 2), leading Notre Dame (California) against Dynamic Prep (Texas)."
"James doubled as a two-time All-Ohio wide receiver at St. Vincent-St. Mary Catholic, reeling in offers from multiple Power 4 programs that hoped to snag the then-6-foot-6 athlete extraordinaire. James racked up 1,912 receiving yards on 99 receptions and 27 touchdowns for the Fighting Irish while holding down the No. 1 spot in the ESPN.com 100 in 2003."
"Allen Iverson The NBA Hall of Famer was a legend at Bethel High School (Virginia) for his abilities as a dual-threat quarterback, leading the Bruins to a state title during his junior year. Iverson finished that season throwing for 1,423 yards and 14 touchdowns while rushing for 781 yards and 15 touchdowns. He also returned five kickoffs and four punts for touchdowns and picked off eight passes from the secondary. That same year, Iverson, who has always expressed that football was his first love, led Bethel to a state title in basketball."
"Matt Barnes The 14-year NBA veteran -- and current analyst and podcaster -- was once one of the most feared deep threats in California, posting 2,070 receiving yards on 100 receptions and scoring 45 touchdowns for Del Campo High School."
Tyran Stokes is the top-ranked prospect in the SportsCenter NEXT 100 and a 6-foot-7, 230-pound athlete who debuted at wide receiver for Notre Dame High School (California). He posted 57 receiving yards and a touchdown in a 57-14 win over Culver City on Sept. 26. He will return to basketball in the Border League Sunday, leading Notre Dame against Dynamic Prep (Texas). His two-sport performance places him among athletes who excelled in both sports, including LeBron James, Allen Iverson and Matt Barnes, each of whom achieved significant high school football and basketball success and notable receiving and scoring statistics.
