135-468: A 1–5 record, eliminated from contention with a loss to the expansion Ottawa BlackJacks . The Rattlers were able to return to hosting games in Saskatoon during a shortened 14-game 2021 season. However, public health restrictions meant the team played without fans until 12 July, when a change in restrictions enabled a return of fans. The team continued to struggle on the court, again winning just once during

180-403: A double-digit number total in three of five statistical categories— points , rebounds , assists , steals , and blocked shots —in a game. The most common way for a player to achieve a triple-double is with points, rebounds, and assists, though on occasion players may record 10 or more steals or blocked shots in a game. The origin of the term "triple-double" is unclear. Some sources claim that it

225-748: A former coach of the Saskatchewan Huskies . Ahead of their inaugural season, the Rattlers purchased a hardwood court from the Toronto Raptors and installed it at their home in the SaskTel Centre, along with shot clocks and net stands.

270-536: A game. The most common double-double combination is points and rebounds, followed by points and assists. During the 2008–09 NBA season, 69 players who were eligible for leadership in the main statistical categories recorded at least ten double-doubles during the season. Since the 1983–84 season, Tim Duncan leads the National Basketball Association (NBA) in the points–rebounds combination with 841 double-doubles, John Stockton leads

315-479: A game. This feat is extremely rare: only four players have officially recorded a quadruple-double in National Basketball Association (NBA) history. The first American male player above the high school level to officially record a quadruple-double was Nate Thurmond , who achieved this feat in 1974 while playing for the NBA's Chicago Bulls . The first American female player above the high school level to officially record

405-632: A list of all WNBA triple-doubles, with the playoff triple-doubles highlighted in italics . Bold numbers indicate the statistic relevant to the triple double. Much like the WNBA, there are a few reasons why triple-doubles are far more rare in the EuroLeague than in the NBA. The games are 40 minutes long—8 minutes shorter than in the NBA—there are 30 games in a season compared to the NBA's 82, and various rules—such as those on assists—are stricter than that of

450-481: A nine-game stretch, the team fired Demopoulos on 6 July. Assistant Tanner Massey took over the head coach position on an interim basis.

540-448: A quintuple-double on March 18, 1968 with 53 points, 32 rebounds, 14 assists, 24 blocks, and 11 steals. However, before 1974, prior to Chamberlain's retirement, steals and blocks were not officially recorded by the NBA . Statistician Harvey Pollack , who spectated the game, reported that Chamberlain might have had more than one quintuple-double. As of January 2023, there is no overlap between

585-466: A season (40 vs 82), and the playing style in the WNBA is more of a team game than relying on star players. As of the 2024 season , 34 triple-doubles have been recorded in the WNBA. Candace Parker is in third place with three. Sabrina Ionescu is in second place with four and Alyssa Thomas has the all-time record at fifteen. Alyssa Thomas scored the third overall playoff triple-double and first WNBA Finals triple-double on September 15, 2022 against

The second was by Alex Montgomery of Lincoln High School ( Tacoma, Washington ), who had 27 points, 22 rebounds, 10 assists, 10 steals, and 10 blocks in January 2007. The third

675-412: Is a performance in which a player accumulates a total of five in five statistical categories—points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks—in a single game. Statistics for steals and blocks were not kept in the NBA until the 1973–74 season, so all NBA five-by-fives are known only from that season onward. Hakeem Olajuwon (six times), Andrei Kirilenko (three times), and Victor Wembanyama (two times) are

720-417: Is sometimes called a 20–20 , double double-double , or double-20 , when a player accumulates 20 or more in two statistics in a game. Another similar feat is a 30–30 . The only player in NBA history to record a 40–40 is Wilt Chamberlain , who achieved the feat eight times in his career, four of which were in his rookie season. A triple-double is a single-game performance by a player who accumulates

765-522: Is the only player who was not a center to accomplish the feat, doing so with steals rather than blocks . Only seven other players (Drexler did it twice) have managed to finish with triple-doubles and a total of 9 in a fourth statistical category (statistical categories in which they fell short are in bold): Notes Notes A quintuple-double is a single-game performance by a player who accumulates double-digits in all five statistical categories—points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocked shots—in

900-577: The Memphis Grizzlies 122-107. There has been occasional controversy surrounding triple-doubles made when a player achieves the feat with a late rebound. Players with nine rebounds in a game have sometimes been accused of deliberately missing a shot late in the game in order to recover the rebound. One such case involved a player shooting at his own team's basket. On March 16, 2003, the Cleveland Cavaliers were up 120–95 against

945-480: The Utah Jazz with four seconds left in the fourth quarter. Following an inbounded ball, Cavaliers guard Ricky Davis shot the ball off his own team's basket to secure the final rebound for a triple-double. The move was criticized by players, coaches, and the media. To deter this, NBA rules allow rebounds to be nullified if the shot is determined not to be a legitimate scoring attempt. Russell Westbrook holds

990-455: The 14 players who have recorded 10+ steals in an NBA game and the 36 players who have recorded 10+ blocks in a game; in other words, no NBA player's career-high stat line is a quintuple-double. The best single-game career high in blocks for a player with a game of 10+ steals is 5 by Draymond Green, and the best single-game career high in steals for a player with a game of 10+ blocks is 8 (Andrei Kirilenko and Hakeem Olajuwon ). A five-by-five

1035-516: The 1967 Eastern Division Finals against the Boston Celtics , when he had 24 points, 32 rebounds, 13 assists, and 12 blocks. The reason why [the quadruple-double] is such a hard thing to accomplish is because it requires a player to be completely dominant on both ends of the court without being too selfish—so he can get the assists—and without fouling out trying to block every shot or grab every rebound. A lot of guys can get

1080-820: The Championship Weekend with a 11–9 record, good for 3rd place in the league. They beat the Edmonton Stingers in the semi-final, 85–83, and then the Hamilton Honey Badgers 94–83 in the final to capture the league's first championship. It was only the second professional basketball title for a team in Saskatchewan, after the Saskatoon Slam 's National Basketball League title in 1993. Team captain Alex Campbell

1125-513: The NBA record for career triple-doubles with 200. He and Oscar Robertson are the only two players to average a triple-double over a season, with Robertson achieving the feat once and Westbrook achieving the feat four times.

1260-814: The NCAA did not start doing so until 1985–86 for assists and 1987–88 for steals. Quadruple-doubles have only been possible since the 1973–74 season , when the NBA started recording both blocked shots and steals. It is often speculated by observers that other all-time greats, namely Oscar Robertson (former all time triple-doubles leader with 181, now Russell Westbrook), Wilt Chamberlain , Bill Russell , and Jerry West could conceivably have had quadruple-doubles. West's biography at NBA.com claims that he once recorded an unofficial quadruple-double with 44 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists, and 10 blocks. A biography of Wilt Chamberlain claims that he also recorded an unofficial quadruple-double in Game ;1 of

This can be largely attributed to Magic Johnson , who was responsible for 137 of this time-span's triple-doubles, or about 25.23% of them. After Johnson retired in 1991, the number of triple-doubles in the league declined. From the 1991–92 to
