Sex-obsessed NBA hero Wilt Chamberlain holds numerous basketball records – but nothing comes close to his claim that he slept with 20,000 women.
Famously, Chamberlain is the only player to score 100 points in a single NBA game, a feat he achieved while playing for the Philadelphia Warriors against the New York Knicks in 1962. But it’s one of his other scoring records that we’re interested in.
In his 1991 book A View From Above, the Slam Hunk claimed to have bedded an incredible 20,000 women in his lifetime. The now-deceased star received a barrage of criticism for his claim, but he never backed down.
Chamberlain, a former Harlem Globetrotter (or should that be Bed trotter) never said he was “bragging” or “stretching the truth.” Instead, he stated: “I was just laying it out there for people who were curious.”
What’s more, the basketball legend was emphatic about the fact that he never had hanky panky with a married woman. “I was just doing what was natural – chasing good-looking ladies, whoever they were and wherever they were,” he said.
