That said, there are other quad-dubs that went unrecorded. Like the Fifth Beatle , there is a fifth player that achieved a quadruple-double, albeit a dubious one.
In November , Jason Kidd pulled off an infamous quadruple-double with 18 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists and 14 turnovers.
From the Los Angeles Times :. Larry Bird had 30 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists and 9 steals for the Celtics to come within one steal of recording a quadruple-double as Boston beat the Utah Jazz, , at Salt Lake City.
But, when informed of his opportunity, Bird chose not to go back into the game after being taken out in the third quarter. So Hakeem came up short of his second career quadruple double. Speaking of coming up short, Clyde Drexler came up short twice:. The assist in question comes at the 2. Without the assist, the 34 year old Clyde was left with the petty line of just 25 points, 10 rebounds, 10 steals and 9 assists.
His final stat line on that night was 26 points, 11 assists, 10 steals and 9 rebounds! UPDATE: Draymond Green was also really close to a quadruple double when he achieved the more difficult parts of a quadruple double with 12 rebounds, 10 assists and 10 steals vs. And this is from a guy that averages Stats: 29 points, 18 rebounds, 10 assists, 11 blocks Hakeem Olajuwon is perhaps the most talented two-way big man of all time. His ability to score in the post was only topped by his unprecedented skills as a rim protector.
He still holds the record for most blocks in NBA history with 3, He dominated both sides of the glass with ease and recorded 11 blocked shots, one shy of his career-high. Stats: 18 points, 16 rebounds, 10 assists, 11 blocks If having one quadruple-double wasn't legendary enough, Hakeem Olajuwon became the first player to do it more than once. More impressively, he had both quadruple-doubles over a three-week span. He did that on a Spurs win vs.
Robinson was stronger, bigger, more athletic than most players in the league during his prime and his skill set was in a full display that night.
This is something incredibly hard to achieve. NBA players are alreadt elite athletes that can do a lot of things for their teams but posting a quadruple-double goes to the next level. Even though a lot of players came close none of them managed to get to this historical achievement. We should also emphasize that there has been no quintuple-double, where all five major counting stats are recorded in double digits, in a professional match of the NBA.
The dominant big man from the Golden State Warriors was somewhat lost against the background of his more eminent contemporaries but he was able to enter the history of the NBA, becoming the first author of a very unique statistical achievement.
It happened at the end of his career, with the Chicago Bulls. Remarkably, the record was set in the opening match of the season. Against the Atlanta Hawks, he was simply unstoppable and managed get to everything on the court. Thurmond averaged 7. The next author of a quadruple-double was another famous player Alvin Robertson, who is one of the most memorable guys in the history of the San Antonio Spurs. Having said that, Olajuwon came mighty close to separating himself from this group.
Earlier in the month, he fell one assist shy of a quadruple-double in a win over the Golden State Warriors when he finished with 29 points, 18 rebounds, 11 blocks and nine assists. Not only is Olajuwon among the greatest shot-blockers in NBA history - he is the all-time league leader for career blocks with 3, - but he is also among the greatest players ever.
Robinson is the fourth member of this group and the last player in the NBA to record a quadruple-double.
