3. This is a joke question, right? Wilt couldn't go 7 of 10 from the free throw line

You should repeat that: FREE THROW LINE.
Without looking it up, i would guess he was closer to 3 of 10 in free throws

Three point line: never would have happened: Have you ever seen pictures of him shoot from anywhere other than right under the hoop?
Absolutely terrible shooting style.
Not even the same game being played today.

Full disclosure: my elementary school coaches were National Industrial Basketball League players (i.e.., professional level but
chose to work for corporations that sponsored the league.)

Today's Wilt would need to develop better post skills. Mosby Nov 2024 #4
