IS HE THE BEST? Gary Payton explains why Wilt Chamberlain is the greatest player ever….👇👇

Many people often bring up Michael Jordan and LeBron James while discussing the greatest players of all time. Bill Russell is credited by some. Gary Payton, the former star player of the Seattle SuperSonics, believes Wilt Chamberlain is the greatest basketball player of all time.

The Glove claimed that Chamberlain was the player who established the standard for other players to reach. Players in the generations that followed him dedicated their careers to pursuing and breaking the NBA records he consistently set.

“Wilt Chamberlain was, in my opinion, a period piece. Who are we following after all of his records, all he did, and everything he recorded? He has all of the records. You are aware that everyone is trying to outdo him and shatter his records. I see no one. someone else pursuing a record-breaking person.”Every Wilt Chamberlain record is breaking, in my opinion. Whose records are they breaking when you see Harden and the others? Payton remarked, “They’re breaking Wilt Chamberlain’s.”

The most statistically dominant player in NBA history was none other than Wilt, the league’s all-time leading scorer. Despite the fact that steals and blocks were unrecorded in his day, he led the league 19 times while he was still in the game. He departed the league with multiple records that seemed unbreakable when he retired in 1973.

Before Kareem Abdul-Jabbar broke it 16 years later, the Big Dipper’s 31,419 points during his career stood as the NBA record. He was the first player in NBA history to score 30,000 points in a regular season. LeBron James broke Kareem’s record to become the NBA’s all-time leading scorer during the previous season.

Decades after Wilt’s retirement, that record and many others have been surpassed, but a few noteworthy ones still hold. For example, his most well-known record of scoring 100 points in a single game still stands today. In addition, he set the record for the highest single-season scoring average in 1961–62, averaging 50.4 points per game. However, of all the records Wilt Chamberlain still owns, one is the most The NBA record that will never be broken.
