48.5 by Wilt Chamberlain, 1961-62

Another Wilt record, but certainly never to be broken, either. Wilt averaged 48.5 minutes per game in the '61-'62 season, thanks to going the full tilt for 79 of the 80 games, and playing in 10 overtime periods. He would play in 3882 of the team's 3890 minutes that season, and likely would have played all of them had he not been ejected with 8 minutes left to play.
