Any NBA list where you are forced to leave Kobe Bryant out is blasphemous, but this time around it has to be done in regards to who holds the NBA crown for their respective state and that's exactly what Wilt does for Pennsylvania. There is a good argument for the two being interchangeable or considered 'Pennsylvania 1A' and 'Pennsylvania 1B,' but we'll leave up to you to debate. Wilt Chamberlain was simply an anomaly for being 7'1 during his era of professional basketball. Prior to ever dunking a basketball in the NBA, he spent stints at the University of Kansas and as a member of the Harlem Globetrotters before being claimed as a territorial pick by the Philadelphia Warriors in the 1959 NBA Draft.
Instantaneously, Wilt 'The Stilt' became a force becoming the only NBA player to average 40 and 50 points per game during a regular season, scoring an NBA's highest 100 points in a single game, and becoming the only NBA player to average 30 points and 20 rebounds a game in a single season. The Philadelphia-bred Chamberlain surprisingly only won two NBA titles in his career, one with the 76ers in 1967 and one with Lakers in 1972. With four MVP Awards and one Finals MVP (1972) under his belt, Chamberlain defined what it meant to dominate in the NBA.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
