50 Years Ago Today: Wilt Scores 100 Points

Wow, 50 years ago today, Wilt Chamberlain, arguably, the best basketball player ever, scored 100 points against the the New York Knicks.  Chamberlain was playing for the Philadelphia Warriors at the time.
From ESPN: When you think about some of the most amazing individual accomplishments in sports, very few, if any, are more remarkable than Wilt Chamberlain's NBA-record 100-point game. Chamberlain put on a performance that more than likely will never be eclipsed by any NBA player.
The 7-foot-1, 275-pound center scored 100 points in leading the Philadelphia Warriors to a 169-147 victory over the New York Knicks on March 2, 1962, at the Hershey Sports Arena in Hershey, Pa. The "Big Dipper" shot 36-for-63 from the field and an incredible 28-for-32 from the free throw line. That was really something because Chamberlain was only a career 51.1 percent from the foul line. He played all 48 minutes.
That amazing game was 50 years ago. Kobe Bryant, the Los Angeles Lakers All-Star guard, is the only player to get within hailing distance of Chamberlain's mark. Bryant scored 81 points against the Toronto Raptors in 2006. He was still 19 points from the century mark, and that's with the 3-point shot.
Al Attles, former coach and general manager of the Golden State Warriors, played in that game. Attles, a 6-foot-4 guard, played in the Warriors' backcourt with Guy Rodgers, who was one of the NBA's most outstanding playmakers. Attles shot 8-for-8 from the field and 1-for-1 from the free throw line. He didn't miss a shot. Rodgers handed out 20 assists that night.

If Wilt ever learned how to shoot a free throw, he would still be the NBA's all time points leader.
