An Arizona high schooler might well be the new Wilt Chamberlain.

Adrian Stubbs, a guard at Maryvale High School in Phoenix, enjoyed a historic game on Tuesday night, when he scored 100 points — in three quarters — during a 109-25 victory at Yuma Kofa.

"He went insane," Maryvale coach Jeremy Smith said. "What he did in the first half was special. We left him in. It was incredible."

Arguably the most impressive aspect of Stubbs' towering achievement is that he scored 70 of his 100 points... In the first half.

Overall, the performance made the senior guard one of only 20 players across the recorded history of high school basketball to score 100 or more in a game.

Stubbs can say he's part of an elite company now. Beyond the high school level, only Chamberlain and Furman University's Frank Selvy have ever scored 100 points in a single game.

Before his 100-point performance, Stubbs was averaging 23.9 points, 7.1 assists, 5.7 rebounds and 5.5 steals per contest, per MaxPreps. He flirted with a quadruple-double earlier this season with 48 points, 15 rebounds, nine steals and eight assists in a win.

His previous career-high for points scored in a game was 56.
