Some edge soiling. Derived from a Kirkus review: The publisher has high hopes for Wilt and we can understand why. Everything from the cool subtitle to Wilt's feisty honesty is just right. Like one of the big guy's lightning dunks, perfectly executed. Few would dispute that foot-for-foot he is the greatest basketball player of all time -- his records are so outsized that many will never be broken. We admire his forthrightness -- as on the court he is no candyass when it comes to defending his lifestyle, his position on the race question, his politics, or his acceptance of money during his collegiate playing days. And there are some very, very entertaining stories of Wilt's days with the Globetrotters. The full, sometimes painfully revealing story of not only the player Wilt but a proud and sensitive man. Wilton Norman Chamberlain (August 21, 1936 - October 12, 1999) was an American basketball player. He played for the Philadelphia/San Francisco Warriors, the Philadelphia 76ers, and the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA); he played for the University of Kansas and also for the Harlem Globetrotters before playing in the NBA. The 7 foot 1 inch Chamberlain weighed 250 pounds as a rookie before bulking up to 275 and eventually to over 300 pounds with the Lakers. He played the center position and is widely considered one of the greatest and most dominant players in NBA history. Chamberlain holds numerous NBA records in scoring, rebounding, and durability categories. He is the only player to score 100 points in a single NBA game or average more than 40 and 50 points in a season. He also won seven scoring, eleven rebounding, nine field goal percentage titles and led the league in assists once. Chamberlain is the only player in NBA history to average at least 30 points and 20 rebounds per game in a season, a feat he accomplished seven times. He is also the only player to average at least 30 points and 20 rebounds per game over the entire course of his NBA career. Although he suffered a long string of professional losses, Chamberlain had a successful career, winning two NBA championships, earning four regular-season Most Valuable Player awards, the Rookie of the Year award, one NBA Finals MVP award, and being selected to 13 All-Star Games and ten All-NBA First and Second teams. Chamberlain was subsequently enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1978, elected into the NBA's 35th Anniversary Team of 1980, and chosen as one of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History of 1996. Chamberlain was known by various nicknames during his basketball playing career. He hated the ones that called attention to his height such as "Goliath" and "Wilt the Stilt", which was coined during his high school days by a Philadelphia sportswriter. He preferred "The Big Dipper", which was inspired by his friends who saw him dip his head as he walked through doorways. Chamberlain was also a successful businessman, authored several books, and appeared in the movie Conan the Destroyer. …

Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Front cover photo by Steve Carruthers. Back cover photo by Mike Paladin. Wilt Chamberlain was a transformative figure in the history of basketball, whose dominance redefined the possibilities of athletic performance in professional sports. Standing over seven feet tall and possessing exceptional strength and agility, Chamberlain set numerous records, including scoring 100 points in a single NBA game in 1962â"a feat unmatched in league history. Beyond his statistical achievements, including leading the league in scoring, rebounding, and even assists, Chamberlain challenged conventional notions of individual prowess within a team sport. His career provoked changes in rules and defensive strategies, forcing the NBA to adapt to his unprecedented impact. He was a four-time NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP) (1960, 1966, 1967, 1968) and a 13-time NBA All-Star. He won two NBA championships (1967 with the Philadelphia 76ers and 1972 with the Los Angeles Lakers) and was named to the All-NBA First Team seven times. He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1978.…
