Basketball Players Word Search

Forty basketball greats: Jordan, LeBron, Kobe, Magic and Bird, Kareem and Shaq, Curry, and stars of the WNBA such as Taurasi and Leslie, from the first big men of the 1950s to the players of today.

Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points in a single game on March 2, 1962, against the New York Knicks, in an arena in Hershey, Pennsylvania, and no one has matched it since. Bill Russell won eleven championships with the Boston Celtics in thirteen seasons. George Mikan, the first great big man, was so hard to stop for the Minneapolis Lakers that the league widened the lane in 1951 to keep him farther from the basket.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played his college games as Lew Alcindor and made the skyhook the hardest shot in the sport to block. The WNBA played its first season in 1997, and in 2002 Lisa Leslie became the first player to dunk in a WNBA game. Dirk Nowitzki of Germany and Giannis Antetokounmpo of Greece both won the league's Most Valuable Player award, a sign of how far the game had spread.
