Notre Dame senior Tyran Stokes, the nation’s No. 1 high school boys basketball recruit in the Class of 2026, has withdrawn from the school.
The school’s athletic director Alec Moss announced the news via a press release Wednesday afternoon.
“Notre Dame High School acknowledges Tyran Stokes’ decision to withdraw and explore new opportunities,” Moss stated in a press release. “We appreciate the contributions he made to our basketball program and community during his time here. We wish Tyran all the best as he pursues his future goals, and we are confident he will find success.”

Stokes, a 6-foot-8 forward, transferred to Notre Dame before last season from a prep school in Northern California. He averaged 21.9 points, 9.3 rebounds and 3.9 assists as he helped lead the Knights to the CIF-SS Open Division championship game and the CIF Southern California Regional final.
Where Stokes will play his senior season is not known yet, but many expect him to play for a national prep school once again.
Notre Dame should still be one of the top teams in the area and all of Southern California, with San Diego State commit Zachary White and junior NaVorro Bowman returning.
It should be another interesting race this season in Mission League basketball, with Sierra Canyon now being the favorite after Stokes’ departure.
