Elgin Baylor only played 48 games in the 1961 season and only on weekends because he was in the army. Still averaged 39 and 19 🔥

The season the Lakers won with Wilt & Jerry, Elgin had to end his career early that season Bc of injuries, but technically he was apart of that winning Lakers team that year.

He should continue to be talked about after his death.

@MM MM U have nothing better to do than trash talk an NBA HOFer and USA militant. If you think rings define a player entirely you don’t know basketball. They still talk about Iverson, Malone, Barkley, Stockton, Nash,etc. but they didn’t win a ring. You’re comment is pure idiocy. Imagine putting the time to comment this on a legend who just passed away. You’re sick.

This is no NBA today without Elgin Baylor. Go watch any highlights you choose with LeBron or Kobe or Jordan. Elgin was doing that stuff, way back in the 60s. And the younger we’ve gotten the more forgotten he’s become and that’s an absolute total crime.

I grew up in So Cal and got to see Baylor and West in person three times. Both were amazing but as Max said, Elgin was doing MJ & Doc before they did and was a far better rebounder than either of them. Many forget that he led the NCAA in rebounding at least once. Easy to make the case for a top ten (non big).
To parapharse Chick Hearn……….”Lakers into the front court, Baylor yo-yo the dribble. Now he goes left, fakes Lucas into the popcorn machine, he’s in the air, haaaaaangs, puts it in with the left hand”

I researched Elgin Baylor a little bit. That’s why I was so hungry when Lonzo Ball got drafted. Sad loss…

Still holds the record for most points scored in an Nba Finals game with 61 points and 22 boards, before in induction of the 3 point line. Rest in Peace

Elgin started his career late too at 24 , can u imagine him or wilt coming into NBA at 20? You can make a case that prime Elgin pre knee injury was better than Jordan….I think he still holds finals record of 61 pts vs one of best defensive teams in league history

This man was so great and underrated. One of the greatest players imo 10 top ever. Literally did everything on the court and dominated.
