Rudy Chamberlain

Wilt ran the 220 hurdles. His favorite sport was volleyball. He had a 40+ inch vertical. The guy was incredible.

Rudy is awesome too though...

Simply put, Wilt was one of a kind, something we might never see again, a mule : a guy as big as Gobert but with the agility and speed of a small forward. Really no comparison there even on the purely physical dimension. If you add skills to the conversation than it becomes even less of a conversation.
 
The thing about Wilt was that he was amazingly powerful, perhaps one of the strongest men who ever lived, and in those days they didn't lift weights like they do now -- but a gentle giant, a little arrogant but much more personable than say, Jabbar.



yet with all the weight lifting injuries are worse then ever!
 
Wilt had crazy vertical ( some people claim 44 inches)... Gobert has measurements to match him but not jumping ability.
