The Greatest Games Ever
Dajuan WagnerRemember that time you torched your little brother and his friends for 35 at the local courts? That must have felt pretty good. Thanks to True Hoop, we stumbled upon this ridiculous site that has recorded some of the greatest single game performances in history - I think that they’re trying to make note of 100-point game ever recorded on Earth - so now you can see where you stack up against some legends.
They’ve got all of the well-known 100-plus point nights: Wilt, Dajuan Wagner, Cheryl Miller, Lisa Leslie, and Denham Brown (the Canadian guard who played at UConn). But they are missing the 134-point drubbing (52-53 FG) dished out by Christian Grant-Fields’ cousin Pookie against the Quizno’s All-Stars back in ‘98. Pookie also grabbed 68 rebounds in that game.
Check out some of these preposterous feats:
* 100 pts. Dajuan Wagner, Camden High (W 157-67) Camden County Vo-Tech-Gloucester Township, 1/16/2001 (N.J.)
* On a 40′ x 82′ court, the New York streetball legend “Pee Wee” Kirkland destroyed an Independent Fire Company or something like that in a league played in the Lewisburg penitentiary in 1973-74. He averaged 70.9 ppg, including games of 100, 82, 79, 60, 51, 50, 48, and 27.
* Oh, and Pee Wee went for 135 in January of ‘74, knocking down 62 FG’s in the process for a 228-47 win in that same league.
* In 1953, this guy John Barber must have been the truth. He had a 188-point game for Los Angeles State against Chapman College JV (92-153 FG), and a 150-point night against the Newspaper Sports Writers.
* Drazen Petrovic of Cibona Zagreb (Croatia) v. SMELT Olimpija (Slovenia) dropped 112 points in October of 1985.
* Wilt “The Stilt” Chamberlain famously hit 100 points in an NBA game for the Philadelphia Warriors against the New York Knicks (36-63 FG, 28-32 FT)
* 13-year old Mats Wermelin, the Swedish nightmare, took over the Swedish Regional Boys Tournament at Stockholm, when he scored 272 points. Wow.
* A 46-year old mother, named Anat Draigor posted 75 points in the second half for Hapoel Mate Yehuda en route to 136 for the night.
* This might be my favorite. Bob Harrison of Lagrange middle school destroyed the Arch Street School in 1941 for 139 points. He was a 5′9″ 13-year old 8th-grader.

Respect for the Denham brown reference
But Wilt did it in the NBA.. Untouchable in my books. And he still had time on the clock, they just rushed the court because he was THAT DAMN ILL

272 points!?! The Swedes make no sense.
Also missed the little known Bevo Francis, who had college games scoring 187 and 152 points.

I have no famous feats. But you gotta love that night where your first step is quicker than anyone elses, your jumper is effortless, and you put up buckets against friends or foes alike.
Those are some pretty crazy stat lines. I can’t imagine what it would be like to drop a century in a game.

I was 5′9” in 8th grade. Today that doesn’t seem that tall for that age.
I once hit 9 home runs in a little league game but in all honesty I did pull the Danny Almonte that year.

I scored 137 points on my nerf hoop when I was 10. Mostly jumpers and an occasional runner here and there…hey, 137 is 137.

Does 100 balls dribbled off my foot count? Because that’s what I did at the gym last week.
I’m also pretty solid at missing layups and traveling.

QueSt??? says:
@ ian so u just stood around on the three point line lol im the opposite ill go to the hoop every single time most of my points are from the free throw line and and 1’s but i usually start with jumpers, that way the ther team thinks im a jump shooter and then they open up the lane.

Ian says:
i had the luck to play with a really good point foward
i lead the tournament in scoring the three years i played in but he was the best player by farrrrrrr
led the team in rebs blocks assists and second in points
dude did everything
if it were the nba imagine lebron with a three point shot who gathers all the attention and im a steve kerr who plays d.
thats my thing play d but i dont miss from three dont know why cuz i never practiced that shit.
he i have to give him the credit for getting me many looks but i can shoot over people my size cuz i have a sheed type release
November 13th, 2008 at 6:47 pm
Ian says:
i can get points because of the size i had on the post and from the three point line but my offensive game overall had a lot of gaps. like midrange and getting to the rim i cant do that.

Luke says:
Some of those lines have to be bull. 272!? Yeah right. If we count those random JUCO jv games, why not just throw in a three hundred point game against a bunch of quadriplegics?

I dropped 73 points ( 25-27 fgs, 18-19 3s, 5-6 fts), 8 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 steals, 8 blocks on this guy: http://www.eurobasket.com/player.asp?Cntry=GER&PlayerID=53899 in some small time nba/european 2nd round draft wash out tournament.
I have done plenty of 11 point games (all 1s) in pick up games (up to 11 obviously). Had a streak of 6 games where I scored all 11 points on the same guy because he was pissin me off.

John says:
I was there the night Juanny dropped 100 I have never and will never see anything like that again. He looked like he was playing with infants not to mention he didn’t play every minute of that game he came out for a little. UNBELIEVABLE.

i’m like 95% sure cedric bozeman scored either 101 or 99 like a day or 2 apart from dajuan dropping 100 back in 01′… dime can you look into that?

On our court my man made 1111 but 100 were over a tree 70 feet high

Kudabeen says:
How long were these games? Some of these are suspicious. You score 188 - 270+ points in a game under 48mins with 9 other people on the court. In some cases, no 3 pointers! You’d have a tough time doing that by yourself on the court…That is just crazy. 272?!? GTFOH…
So Doc:
You shouldn’t hate Iverson so much then…Kindred Spirits.
Post 4:
LOL…Had to be some kind of drugs involved with some of these stats…
