The Philadelphia Warriors’ scorer’s sheet from Wilt Chamberlain’s NBA record 100-point game was sold for $214,579 at auction, as TMZ Sports first reported and SCP Auctions confirmed to Yahoo Sports. The buyer is currently unknown due to request to stay anonymous.
The scoresheet was signed by Chamberlain and was the one from his team which might have helped bring the price up. It was sold for more than double the New York Knicks‘ scoresheet from that game.
According to SCP Auctions, Warriors statistician Toby DeLuca reportedly held onto the scorer’s sheet as a personal memento on March 2, 1962, the day that Chamberlain made history in Hershey, Penn.
DeLuca later died, and TMZ reported that his widow gifted it to a friend who reportedly held onto it for a few more years before auctioning it off.
