Tatley kicked with a squared toe boot due to having a club foot.
Nice. Actually all I had found out about Tatley's physique is that he was only 5'7" but weighed 220.

Donovan Mitchell Scored 71 points in an NBA game on Monday, becoming only the seventh player to do so in NbA history. Since everyone knows Wilt Chamberlains 100 points, who were the other five? Hint: Two people not on that list are Michael Jordan and Lennon James.

Bryant (81 on 1/22/2006) and Baylor (71 on 11/15/1960) are both correct. Wilt did it 5 times (100 in 3/2/1962, 78 in 12/8/1961, 73 in 1/13 and 11/16/1962, and 70 on 3/10/1963), and Mitchell scored 71 a week ago.
That leaves 3. As a hint, they occurred in 1978, 1994, and 2017.

Yes! 71 points on 4/24/1994.
The last one was Devin Booker, 70 points on 3/24/2017.

OK, new one. 40 rebound games. Two guys dominate the list, but four players have done it.
