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. In NBA history, only four players have recorded officially recognized quadruple-double performances.

List of quadruple doubles

Near misses

There have been some notable near misses (within 3 total stats of a quadruple double):

Prior to 1973-74

The NBA started recording both blocked shots and steals in the 1973-74 season, so quadruple-doubles have only been possible since that time. There is much speculation that Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain, two of the best all-around players before that time, may have recorded quadruple-doubles, 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 not many games of that time were recorded on video and blocks and steals were not official statistics at the time, this is largely conjectural.

Unofficially, however, Wilt Chamberlain is believed to have recorded at least two quadruple doubles; in Game 1 of the 1967 Eastern Division Finals versus the Boston Celtics he tallied 24 points, 32 rebounds, 13 assists and 12 blocks according to the game's statistician.[28] In Game 2 of the 1967 NBA Finals against the San Francisco Warriors, Chamberlain scored only 10 points but grabbed 38 rebounds, dished out 10 assists, and blocked 10 shots.[29]

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 at any level of basketball, the term five-by-five has been coined for a game where a player gets at least 5 each of the five stats listed.
