The top three most extraordinary, mind-blowing individual basketball performances in Los Angeles history:

• Dwayne Polee in ‘81: 43 pts (17-20) for Manual Arts over archrival Crenshaw in the City title game (sold-out Sports Arena).

• Kobe’s 81 (’06 Staples, ‘nuff said).

• JuJu Watkins’ 38 (and 11, 8 and 5) over undefeated and No. 1-ranked archrival UCLA.
