Be like Mike? Stack has been there

Posted Feb 18, 2013
No one has scored more points in one game at Chicago's United Center than Jerry Stackhouse. Not even the guy with the statue outside the place, one of Stackhouse's idols growing up in North Carolina, Michael Jordan. On April 3, 2001, Stackhouse, then a Detroit Piston, had the best game of his NBA career, erupting for 57 points -- the most he has ever scored in his life. (ESPN.com)
