Showtime Sports has a brilliant 3-Part Wilt Chamberlain documentary that just premiered.
I'm loving these recent NBA documentaries.
There was a Bill Russell one, titled Legend on Netflix from earlier this year.

I'd love for documentaries on Elgin Baylor, Connie Hawkins' and that entire betting scandal as well.

I always found Wilt the person to be pretty interesting. Of course there is the whole 20,000 women claim, but he was also a loner who was pretty well spoken and had an interesting outlook on life.

The doc states that was taken way out of context and he was actually embarrassed by that. Also apparently happened like a week or so before Magic announced he caught HIV.
There is a clip on him on some talk show getting chastised by a audience member asking him if he took a HIV test.

It should have been Wilt in these commercials if the mountain lion story is true.

If Wilt Chamberlain would have lived today the Social Media would have exploded to a point where he would break again World Records.
