And in his entire career, he never fouled out.
Ouch, you read my mind.
SourceIn the 1961-62 season, during which Chamberlain averaged 50.4 points a game for the Philadelphia Warriors and scored 100 points in a game against the Knicks, Chamberlain played every minute of every matchup on the 80-game regular-season schedule except on the night of Jan. 3, 1962.
With 8 minutes 33 seconds remaining in the Warriors game against the Lakers in Los Angeles, [Earl] Strom gave Chamberlain a technical foul for complaining about a call. Chamberlain then made reference to Earl Stroms old mother, according to [Norm] Druckers report to the league, as cited in Gary M. Pomerantzs book Wilt, 1962 (2005).
When Chamberlain yelled at Strom that he must be gambling on the game, according to Druckers report, he slapped Chamberlain with a second technical, causing an automatic ejection. Drucker tacked on a third technical after additional sequences of profane words from Chamberlain.
