Tuesday night, a kid in Arizona scored 100 points in a HS basketball game.
It’s hard to have a better night on the basketball court than Arizona high school basketball player Adrian Stubbs did on Tuesday.
Stubbs, a guard at Phoenix Maryvale High School, became the first player in Arizona high school basketball history to score 100 points in a game in the team’s 109-25 win over Yuma Kofa High School. Stubbs scored 100 points despite sitting on the bench for the entirety of the fourth quarter.
He scored 70 points in the first half, scoring every single point for Maryvale, and then scored 30 points in the third quarter. Stubbs scored 35 points in the first quarter and said that head coach Jeremy Smith gave him the green light.
Full article, HERE from Fox News.
In full disclosure, they were playing a lower ranked team, but Stubbs entire team got behind him and fed him for the entire 3 quarters he played.
That, by itself, is unusual today, when it is usually everybody for themselves. And it is also a tribute to Stubbs in that his teammates and coach cared enough to let me get the new scoring record.
However, he is still third on the all time list! Danny Heater, HERE scored 135 points in a single game in 1960! And Nick Khatchikian, HERE, scored 102 points last year.
So there are still good folks out there who will help a teammate… Good to know, especially in this day and age…
“And it is also a tribute to Stubbs in that his teammates and coach cared enough to let me get the new scoring record.”
And completely embarrassing the other team.
Low class
Matt- Yeah, that is what usually happens when scoring like this happens… sigh
If Nick Saban had been coaching the winning team , he still would say they could’ve done better . Nick Saban (a great coach-Roll Tide!!)always cracked me up in the leaving the field interviews , never content to admit his team rolled overthe other teams , even still critiqued his team . Funny ….maybe that made his team to work harder . Unrelated but kinda related . Good Night Mary Ellen ………..
