Wilt "The Stilt" Chamberlain is known for a plethora of his accomplishments on the court, one of them being the famous 100 point game. Standing at 7-foot-1 and weighing 275 pounds, Wilt was a beast on the basketball court.

His scoring average of 50.4 points per game during the 1961-62 regular season (playing 80 games) is the most ever by any player in a single year and it's highly unlikely that it'll be bested anytime soon.

In terms of 50-point TDs, Chamberlain had two to his name - one where he dropped 51/29/11 against Detroit in February of 1963 while the other came against the Lakers in 1968 with him putting together eye-popping numbers in 53 points, 32 rebounds and 14 assists.

When Wilt decided to hang his boots in 1973, he was boasting superhuman career-averages of 30 points and 22.4 rebounds per game.
