The Warriors lost a game against Cincinnati Royals just a night before this one and were looking for a win. The 13-time All-Star dominated like only he could and exploded for 78 points in a win against the Packers.

Wilt shot the ball well and went for 29-48 from the field, with a field-goal percentage of 60.4 while also recording 36 rebounds in this game. The Packers had no answer for Wilt's explosive performance. The two-time NBA champion went to the free-throw line 25 times and converted 15 of those attempts.

With this win, the Warriors improved to 26-19. Wilt ended up getting named to All-NBA First Team although his team could not win a championship that year.
