In basketball, a quadruple-double is defined as an individual performance in which a player accumulates a double digit number total in four of five statistical categories, including points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocked shots in a game.[1] This feat is extremely rare[1][2] since only four players have officially recorded a quadruple-double in National Basketball Association (NBA) history. The first American player who officially recorded a quadruple-double is Nate Thurmond.
Men's basketball
The four players listed below are the only players who have officially recorded a quadruple-double in an NBA game.
| Name | Date | Team | Opponent | Points | Rebounds | Assists | Steals | Blocks | Overtime | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nate Thurmond | October 18, 1974 | Chicago Bulls | Atlanta Hawks | 22 | 14 | 13 | — | 12 | Yes | [3] |
| Alvin Robertson | February 18, 1986 | San Antonio Spurs | Phoenix Suns | 20 | 11 | 10 | 10 | — | No | [4] |
| Hakeem Olajuwon | March 29, 1990 | Houston Rockets | Milwaukee Bucks | 18 | 16 | 10 | — | 11 | No | [5] |
| David Robinson | February 17, 1994 | San Antonio Spurs | Detroit Pistons | 34 | 10 | 10 | — | 10 | No | [6] |
Quadruple-doubles have only been possible since 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, Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell or Jerry West could conceivably have had quadruple-doubles.[2] According to West's biography at NBA.com, he reportedly recorded a quadruple-double after having 44 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists and 10 blocks.[7] Wilt Chamberlain also reportedly recorded a quadruple-double in Game 1 of the 1967 Eastern Division Finals against the Boston Celtics, when he had 24 points, 32 rebounds, 13 assists and 12 blocks.[8]
Near misses
Several others had finished with triple-doubles that were within one stat of a quadruple-double:

- b Olajuwon was originally credited a quadruple-double as shown by the box score, however, the NBA stripped Olajuwon of one assist after reviewing the game tape.[14] Although the NBA does not recognize this as a quadruple-double, Olajuwon is still credited with 10 assists in his career statistics.[18]

NCAA Division I women
- Ann Meyers, February 18, 1978, UCLA vs. Stephen F. Austin; 20 points, 14 rebounds, 10 assists, 10 steals.[22] This is the only quadruple-double in NCAA Division I women's basketball history.

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. Such a feat has never occurred at any level of basketball above high school. The term five-by-five has been coined for a game in which a player accrues at least five each of the five stats listed.
