    I don't know about two different players but I found this about Wilt Chamberlain:
    https://forums.lakersground.net/togo/thread.php?topic_id=21433

    Wilt scored 139 points in back-to-back games in 1961

    78 -- Wilt Chamberlain, (Philadelphia) vs. LA Lakers 12/8/1961 (3OT).
    61 -- Wilt Chamberlain (Philadelphia) vs. Chicago 12/9/1961.

    He had to play a third game the following night. Don't know what he scored but it had to be at least 50 points because he had streak of 7 consecutive games of 50+ points in Dec 1961.

    Wilt also had a 135 point back-to-back performance a month later.

    73 -- Wilt Chamberlain (Philadelphia) vs. Chicago 1/13/1962
    62 -- Wilt Chamberlain (Philadelphia) vs. Boston 1/14/1962.

    He scored 62 points in his next game.

    He tallied his third back-to-back 60+ game that season with 126 points.

    65 -- Wilt Chamberlain (Philadelphia) vs. St Louis 2/27/1962
    61 -- Wilt Chamberlain (Philadelphia) vs. Chicago 2/28/1962.

    this list has all the 60 or more points scored in a game.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_National_Basketball_Association_single-game_scoring_leaders

    Just quickly looking at it (sort by date), there was an instance where two players scored 60+ on the same day (Elgin Baylor and Wilt Chamberlain), then Wilt did it again the next day. Dec 8 and Dec 9, 1961.

    The last time two players scored 60+ on the same day was April 9, 1978. George Gervin (63) and David Thompson (73).

    in a 5 game stretch in 1961-62 he scored: 67 - 65 - 61 - 100 - 58. That's 351 points; 70.2 points/game. He averaged 27 rebounds in those 5 games as well

    that was the season he averaged 50.4 & 25.7 in 48.5 minutes a game (10 OT periods)

    J-Will explains why it was a lot easier for Jordan to score than it is for LeBron:

    They defended it well. Good defense but better offense. He just made the shot.

    I mean, you looked correct there. It took a last second 3 for the Spurs to win.
