New York ? The ball Wilt Chamberlain used to score the last of his record 100 points is up for grabs.
Leland’s Auctions, which deals in sports memorabilia, has included the historic basketball in its next auction, April 27.
Chamberlain, then with the Philadelphia Warriors, scored 100 points against the New York Knicks on March 2, 1962 in Hershey, Pa.
When the game ended, a teen-age fan named Kerry Ryman ran on the court and made off with the ball, and used it in his own neighborhood games. There were numerous attempts to return the ball but Chamberlain never showed any interest and Ryman held onto it.
When Chamberlain died last fall, Ryman decided to put it up for auction.
