By comparison, Chamberlain shot 36-for-63 with 28 free throws in his 100-point game, which, of course, occurred before the invention of the 3-point line. He also slung two assists, which resulted in him accounting for 104 points. And he did it all in just four quarters. Although Mitchell fell just short of matching Chamberlain's mark, his performance was historic nonetheless. With it, he became just the seventh player in NBA history to score 70 or more points in a game, joining Chamberlain , Elgin Baylor, David Thompson, David Robinson, Kobe Bryant and Devin Booker.

He also broke the record for most scored by a Bulls opponent in the franchise's 56-year history, which, incidentally, was previously held by Chamberlain via a 68-point outing on Dec. 16, 1967.
