Only one person in the picture above would grow up to score 100 points in an NBA game. To be fair, it’s only be done once, period.
Wilt Chamberlain is the tall child, pictured here outside Brooks Elementary School in Northwest Philadelphia.
Chamberlain is one of the greatest basketball players of all time and was an All-Star in 13 of his 14 seasons played.
In his iconic career, he spent six years with the Philadelphia/San Francisco Warriors, three with the Philadelphia 76ers and five with the LA Lakers.

The former center was a two-time NBA champion and was also named MVP on four separate occasions.
Outside of basketball, Chamberlain is famous for playing a villain in the film ‘Conan the Destroyer’ which also starred Arnold Schwarzenegger.
