Pete Maravich scores 68 points
Pete Maravich’s finest moment with the Jazz, and perhaps in his NBA career came at the Superdome, when he scored 68 points against the Knicks and broke Jerry West’s record for most points by a guard in NBA history (since passed by Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant among others). The effort came on Feb. 25, 1977. Maravich made 26-of-43 field goals and 16-of-18 free throws and remember this was before there was a 3-point shot in the NBA.
