How hard is it to get a quadruple-double in the NBA? Only 4 people have done it in history, and Wembanyama has become the light of active service!
In the NBA, a triple-double is not a difficult thing, and even Wei Shao has four triple-doubles, which gives many star players the opportunity to have a triple-double. However, the results of four doubles, even in such an era of data, have not happened. Throughout the ages, only four people have reached it. We will reveal the names of all four men tonight.
Nate Thurmond is a veteran superstar, a star player of the 70s, but few people know about him. He chipped in 22 points, 14 rebounds, 13 assists and 12 blocks in a game against Chicago, placing him among the greatest quadruple-doubles in NBA history. He only had two steals in his career, but because of his four rebounds, his performance, got him into the Hall of Fame.
Alvin Robertson, a shooting guard who averages 14 points per game, is also a decent starter. However, he is also very good defensively, mainly responsible for defense, three steals king, one dpoy. The best moment of his career was the one against Phoenix, where he had 20 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists, and 10 blocks, and his only four goals so far, all because of his steals.
Olajuwon is the most well-rounded of the league's "Big Four" centers, with a more balanced defense and offense, there's no doubt about that. He had 18 points, 16 rebounds, 10 assists and 11 blocks in a game against the Bucks, making a huge difference for the team. When Jordan first retired, he was one of the best players in the NBA.
And Robinson in the "Big Four". Prior to Duncan's arrival, he had been the centerpiece of the team, averaging 20 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks per game. With 34 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists, and 10 blocks, he is an all-around player. If it were in the era of basketball, Robinson would have been stronger.
Among the current star players, Jokic's defense is mediocre, and his three, three, or even four times are difficult. The same goes for Doncic, who, while regularly scoring triple-doubles, has mediocre blocking and interception prowess defensively. His main focus was on offense, and he simply didn't have enough energy to organize and defend. Green is close to that goal, but he's lost his best form and there's no hope for a quadruple-double.
If you want to judge the most promising star player at the moment, it is Wembanyama. He's a monster, both offensive and defensive. Offense, passing, and defense are all top-notch. He's still leveling up, and by the time he completes his form, he'll probably be able to get four attributes.
