Wilt Chamberlain is widely regarded as one of the greatest players to ever play in the NBA. He entered the league as a youngster during the 1959-60 season and quickly established himself as one of the best players.

Apart from his elite basketball skills, Wilt is infamous for his social life. He made a bold claim of having slept with a 20,000 women during his lifetime.

Interestingly enough, he also backed his claims when he faced the backlash. Wilt talked about this issue in his book, ‘A View From Above’ and talked about how he is not bragging, rather, he is just laying it out for people.

Wilt said, “I’m not boasting… I don’t see all this lovemaking as any kind of conquest. All I’m saying is that I like women, people are curious about my s*x life, and to most people, the number of women who have come and gone through my bedrooms – and various hotel rooms around the country – would boggle the mind.” 

Despite him clarifying the situation, fans and analysts around the world still refuse to believe his claims. After all, 20,000 is quite an unbelievable number!
