In major North American professional sports, the 1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers hold the record with 33 consecutive wins in the NBA. In college sports, the UConn women's basketball team won an astonishing 111 consecutive games from 2014 to 2017. Globally, squash player Jahangir Khan won 555 consecutive matches from 1981 to 1986.
Tiger Woods was the first athlete to surpass $1 billion in career earnings, primarily through endorsement deals with Nike, Rolex, and other major brands. LeBron James also crossed the $1 billion threshold while still an active player, combining NBA salary with his extensive business empire and media ventures.
Several records are considered virtually untouchable. Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak in 1941 has stood for over 80 years, with no player coming within 12 games. Cal Ripken Jr.'s 2,632 consecutive games played is another near-impossible feat. Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point NBA game and Wayne Gretzky's 2,857 career points (nearly 1,000 more than second place) round out the most commonly cited unbreakable records.
