March 21, 1973: Triple-double with career high for assists
Abdul-Jabbar’s versatility was perhaps at its peak during a 119-96 rout vs. the Supersonics in 1973.
Abdul-Jabbar recorded 36 points, along with a career-high 14 assists, and 11 rebounds for a triple-double. Behind Abdul-Jabbar’s proficient passing performance, the Bucks had six players with double-digit point totals.
Dec. 10, 1971: Beatdown of Boston with career-high 55 points
Abdul-Jabbar played in 1,560 regular season contests and his greatest scoring outburst occurred during his second season.
Abdul-Jabbar exploded for 55 points and 18 rebounds in the Bucks’ 120-104 home victory vs. the Boston Celtics. Abdul-Jabbar netted 23 of his 36 shots and drained 9 of his 11 free throws.
Anchored by Abdul-Jabbar and Robertson, the 66-win Bucks secured the top record in the NBA during the 1970-71 season. The Bucks set a then-NBA record with 20 consecutive victories and Abdul-Jabbar collected his first MVP.
The Bucks topped the then-San Francisco Warriors 4-1 in the first round, then finished off the Lakers in five games to set up a Finals matchup vs. the Baltimore Bullets.
The agreement, which has not been finalized, puts the value of the Bucks at $3.5 billion
