Rick Barry was a scoring genius from the first moment he pulled on a pair of tube socks. He led the NCAA in scoring during his time at Miami. He led the NBA in scoring in only his second season with the Warriors. He jumped to the Oakland Oaks and led the start-up ABA in scoring.
But he never scored like he scored on March 26, 1974, 46 years ago. In the penultimate game of a disappointing season for the Warriors, Barry let it all hang out, scoring a career-high 64 points — 45 in the second half.
