Coming down to the final buzzer 🚨 The application for the Wilt Chamberlain Memorial Fund scholarship closes in one week! Visit wiltfund.org to apply, or check out the link in bio. 📝

His vertical from a standing position off two feet is like nothing you’ve ever seen. He could wait until a shooter was about to release his shot before elevating. It’s why he put up block numbers that are out of this world. He is Once In A Lifetime. Wilt

Wilt Chamberlain records a near quadruple-double with 11 blocks in a win over the Detroit Pistons. • 34 PTS | 14-14 FG • 27 REB • 7 AST • 11 BLK (Mar. 12, 1969)

Who compared the two? I got to know Wilt when he was in his mid 40’s. He played with us at UCLA all the time in the summer. Saw him dominate big men 20+ yrs younger, when he felt so inspired. Would hold court afterward, entrancing us with his legendary exploits, while laying on the grass in front of the gym…what a time!

Even in his mid 30’s Wilt’s standing vertical off two feet was insane. During Kareem’s @kaj33 20-year career no other center came close to blocking the skyhook as often as The Big Dipper did. That’s just a basketball truth.

@aaronsha I agree, thank you!

@OCChamberlain Without Wilt,I doubt the league would be what it is today.Besides being its best player, he kept the league in the papers for all the years after he retired.

HOF and former teammate Billy Cunningham talking about what Wilt meant to the league on the night the Sixers retired The Big Dipper’s jersey 23 years ago today

My favorite photo of Wilt—after being traded to the Sixers. He would go on to win 3 straight NBA MVPs and a championship back home.
