Wilt Chamberlain
1960
Just as he did throughout his career, Chamberlain dominated in his first All-Star Game, scoring 23 points and grabbing 25 rebounds to lead the East to a 125-115 win in his home arena, Philadelphia's Convention Hall. Chamberlain was the East's top scorer and the game's MVP, and finished his rookie campaign with an average of 37.6 points and 27 rebounds, both regular-season records. He was named both the league's MVP and Rookie of the Year that season. As for the rest of his career, we'll keep it short and say this: The man holds 72 -- seventy-two! -- all-time NBA records.
