Thursday marks the 55th anniversary of Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game – the only 100-point game in NBA history.
“It’s probably one of the greatest performances that I haven’t seen,” said Heat guard Dion Waiters, a Philly native who like most of the world never saw any footage of Chamberlain’s 100-point performance on March 2, 1962 in a game between his Philadelphia Warriors and the New York Knicks in Hershey, Pa. because it wasn’t televised and no film of the game has ever surfaced.
“I scored 63 when I was in the eighth grade in a rec league,” said Waiters, who matched his NBA career-high of 33 points on two occassions this season.
