Elgin Baylor's dominance reached its zenith on November 15, 1960 as the Lakers forward torched the Knicks for 71 points on remarkable 58% shooting while hauling in 25 rebounds in a 123-108 victory at Madison Square Garden. The relentless scoring barrage shattered the NBA record, making Baylor the first player to break the 70-point barrier during LA's inaugural season. The performance remained untouched by anyone not named Wilt Chamberlain until 1978, testament to the revolutionary hang time and graceful power of the 11-time All-Star who averaged 27.4 points and 13.5 rebounds across his Hall of Fame career while leading the Lakers to eight NBA Finals.
