Shaquille O’Neal -Weapon Of Mass Destruction – 53 Points 18 Rebounds vs Timberwolves 

4/20 (no joke), 1994, the Minnesota Timberwolves visit the Orlando Magic. Shaquille O’Neal was fighting David Robinson for the scoring title late in the 1993/1994 regular season (both over 29.0ppg).

Against his arch rival, Christian Laettner’s Minnesota Timberwolves. Shaq had a Wilt Chamberlain like a performance. A dunking and jump hook clinic by a 2nd year player the world hasn’t seen before.

The most dominant force in NBA history (here, I said it) finished the game with 53 Points 18 Rebounds in 36 minutes while shooting 71% from the field and almost 70% from the free throw line, which was probably even more impressive for Shaq.
