10 Legendary NBA Players whose Jersey Numbers were Retired

#5 Wilt Chamberlain, No. 13 retired by the Lakers, the 76ers and the Warriors

If you were to write a book of unbreakable NBA records, Wilt Chamberlain will probably have a whole chapter dedicated to him

If you were to write a book of unbreakable NBA records, Wilt Chamberlain will probably have a whole chapter dedicated to him. Some of his amazing records include the most points-per-game in a season (50.4), the most rebounds-per-game in a season (27.2), and most points in a single game, with 100. But he also holds the impressive record for jersey number retired by most teams, with three.

With the Warriors (originally in Philadelphia, later in San Francisco), he averaged over 40 points and 25 rebounds in his first five years. He was traded in his sixth year to the 76ers and won the franchise its second NBA title, first in 12 years. In 1968, he joined fellow future Hall of Famers, Jerry West and Elgin Baylor, and ended the Lakers' losing streak in the finals, which stood at seven straight.

Chamberlain will probably be featured in NBA record books for the foreseeable future and has earned the right to have his name and number hung from the rafters at three different arenas.
