Which achievement is more impressive? Dropping 100 points in one game, or twice accomplishing “three straight games with 60+ points” within just six weeks? Chamberlain secured both these milestones during his commanding 1961-62 campaign.


As last season’s regular season MVP, Alexander is pursuing one of Chamberlain’s numerous scoring streak records. The Thunder guard scored 26 points on December 1 in a 123-115 win over the Trail Blazers, extending his streak of games with 20+ points to 93. This ranks second in NBA history, behind only Chamberlain’s 126 consecutive games with 20+ points from 1961 to 1963.
