Unbelievable Scoring Feats: The Jaw-Dropping NBA Game That Shattered All Records
“Wilt, me, then Kobe,” Adebayo said afterward. “It sounds crazy.”
3. 81 – Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers vs. Toronto Raptors (Jan. 22, 2006)
Nearly 44 years had passed since Wilt’s 100 points before Bryant’s 81-point game became the second time in NBA history a player reached at least 80 in a game.
To say the offense was centered around Kobe that day would be an understatement. He took 46 of his team’s 88 field-goal attempts, 20 of the Lakers’ 33 free throws and only had two assists. But he still maintained his efficiency despite the insane workload, as he shot 61% from the field, 54% from 3-point range, and 90% from the line.
