The night of 100 points — 60 years ago today

View descriptionShare

60 years today, Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points in an NBA game.

To celebrate this one-of-a-kind anniversary, Jason and Rich are joined by Gary Pomerantz—author of Wilt, 1962: The Night of 100 Points and the Dawn of a New Era (https://amzn.to/3KacqQs)—to discuss Chamberlain's record-breaking night. 

Topics included the added mythology of the game not being televised, what happened to the game ball, how Wilt and his teammates celebrated the accomplishment, Wilt's larger than life personality and play, what surprises newer fans when they first find out about this game, Chamberlain's influence on today's game and so much more!
