A quadruple-double is a basketball term, defined as an individual performance in a game in which a player accumulates a double digit number total in four of these five categories: points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocked shots.

Speculation
It should be noted that the NBA started recording both blocks and steals in the 1973-74 season, so this particular feat has only been possible since then. As such, some people speculate that Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain, two of the best all-around players before that time, might have recorded a quadruple-double, as they both were very skilled at blocking shots. Also, other players from the era, notably Jerry West and Oscar Robertson, could conceivably have had quadruple-doubles. However, as blocks and steals were not official statistics at the time, it will only be speculation.
Quintuple-double
Analogous to a quadruple-double, a quintuple-double can be defined as a performance in which an individual collects at least 10 each of points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks in a single game. Since such a feat has never happened in the history of the NBA, the term five-by-five has been coined for a game in which a player tallies at least 5 in each of the five aforementioned stats.
- Jamel Staten, February 2, 2007, Minnesota Ripknees vs. St. Louis Stunners; 29 points, 13 rebounds, 10 assists, 10 steals.[28]
NCAA Division I men's quadruple-double
- Lester Hudson, November 13, 2007, Tennessee-Martin vs. Central Baptist; 25 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists, 10 steals.[29] — this is the only known quadruple-double in NCAA Division I men's basketball history.
NCAA Division I women's quadruple-double
- Ann Meyers, February 18, 1978, UCLA vs. Stephen F. Austin; 20 points, 14 rebounds, 10 assists, 10 steals.[30] — this is the only known quadruple-double in NCAA Division I women's basketball history.
