Who has missed the most free throws in NBA history?

W

Wilt Chamberlain Not all of his records were positive ones, though, as he became the first player in NBA history to miss 5,000 free throws, a milestone that only Shaquille O’Neal has since reached.

Over an eight-month stretch in 1993, Micheal Williams made 97 free throws in a row while he was playing for the Timberwolves. That’s the most for an NBA player. The nonprofessional record for most consecutive free throws made belongs to dairy farmer turned free-throw shooter Ted St. Martin.
