Wilt Chamberlain is one of the most recognisable names in sports history. His outrageous persona, both on and off the court during his games, has solidified his place in basketball history. Nevertheless, among all of his achievements, one famous artefact that is being auctioned off has a fascinating backstory. This is the tale of the jersey Wilt wore in 1972, when the Los Angeles Lakers won their first NBA title.

Wilt Chamberlain architected the Lakers dynasty

1972 was significant in a number of ways. Wilt Chamberlain was a big part of why Wilt's Lakers had a 33-game winning streak and were an unbeatable force. A testament to the dominance of the era is the fact that this streak has yet to be matched in the NBA. Similar to how Babe Ruth helped the Yankees, Chamberlain's influence extended beyond the court. Despite having 69 victories that year, it wasn't the intended outcome. They aimed to take home the trophy this year.
