On our recent V.J. Edgecombe post we mentioned how the No. 3 pick in the NBA draft scored the 3rd most points in an NBA debut game – with 34 as his 76ers beat the Celtics in Boston 117-116.
Who holds the NBA record for most points in a debut game? The answer, like lots of NBA questions, is Wilt Chamberlain who scored 43 at Madison Square Garden when the visiting Philadelphia Warriors beat the New York Knicks, 118-109 back in 1959. Wilt also grabbed 28 rebounds in the game. But our TWIST question deals with Frank Selvy, the player who scored 35 points in his NBA debut, second most in NBA history.
