Born 85 years ago today, @sixers legend Wilt Chamberlain! George McGinnis musta felt proud with that one 30/20/10 game he had in 1976. Well, the Big Dipper had 12 such games as a 76er. Some dudes just different. 📸 Dick Raphael 📊 @bball_ref

Born #OTD in 1928, franchise great George King! King played five seasons for the Syracuse Nationals and sealed our franchise's first NBA title in 1955 with a go-ahead FT & clutch steal in the final seconds of Game 7. Final score: 92-91 📰 Syracuse Post-Standard, April 11, 1955

Born #OTD in 1950, @sixers great Caldwell Jones. Few players in the 1970s and 1980s challenged a shot like Caldwell. Michael Cooper learned that lesson the hard way.

Along with Bill Sharman, Hannum is the only man to win an NBA and ABA title as head coach. Hannum has NBA titles with the 1967 76ers and the 1958 St. Louis Hawks plus an ABA title in 1969 with the Oakland Oaks.
