    I'd be pretty surprised to see him get one any time soon. To get a triple double and not be a guard you pretty much need to control the whole offense.

    If Sengun becomes so good he is trusted to control the whole offense, we'll be talking about much more important things than triple doubles.

    Some pretty curious answers in here. Sure it is rare for bigs to get triple doubles, but did you guys not watch Sengun at all last year?

    As an 19 year old rookie he averaged 4 assists per 30 minutes, and that was with the offense rarely if ever being “run through him”. He has had games of:

    7 assists in 20:52 minutes
    6 assists in 22:36 minutes
    8 assists in 34:34 minutes

    again, as an 19 year old rookie. With minimal improvement and simply increased playing time he should easily rack up a couple triple doubles every season. If he develops towards his top end projections he will be a triple double machine.

    There's also the fact that poor people don't really understand style, they just believe they do.

    You can't expect ordinary people to know what does sortiment(in fabrics), denier (yarns) Ne or Nc (threads), sodiummethaphosphate treatment (in finishing/Apres), Glass-transition points (in polymers) means. You can not expect everyone to shop in Saville Row, New Bond Street, Santa Babila, Champs-Elysees, Rumeli Caddesi also but you have to expect them to have a certain requirement when dress up.

    As late Oscar De La Renta said that: "A well dressed up man never disappears in the crowd" or as in European mantra: "Elegance survives all times".

    I witness everyday in London that lots of ordinary staff in the Square Mile dress much better than filthy-rich investors/oligarchs/sheiks/soccer players.

    Alpi is a hopeful individual as we see his attire in Sengun 4K clip (especially dark trenchcoat is world class) but that green suit and OKC hat sucks. He is not a Banchero type of person and he should dress in "Minimalist Perfection" style.

    13 - 12 - 6 Tonight vs. Orlando.
    8 shots only.
    Could've been his first.
    (Silas wouldn't have allowed that though.)
