    You're right, my bad. I was looking up players that had a triple double and 8+ blocks, and it brought up Hakeem and DRob's quadruple doubles, plus a game where Robinson had 27pts/12reb/10ast/8blk (no steals). Mixed 'em up.

    I haven't looked up stats, but 10 steals is extremely rare by itself. I doubt any player has ever even really come close to having 10 blocks and 10 steals not to mention having 10 assists as well.

    Technically possible, but realistically impossible.

    Only one player in history has had as many as 7 and 7 (contrary to my earlier, incorrect post). He also had 38 points, 17 boards, and 6 assists (and 12 blocks).

    Prime Andrei Kirilenko is the only person who could be able to do it realistically.

    Kirilenko and Hakeem Olajuwon are the only 2 NBA players who have finished a game with at least 6 steals, 6 blocks, 6 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists since 1985–86.

    This should help answer your question.

    Oh, and to me personally... Batum is a poor man's Kirilenko.

    Maybe in a Quintuple Overtime game.

    Blocks were not an official stat in the 60s or Wilt would have had many quadruple doubles

    Hakeem was 4 assists and 3 steals away from such a feat.
    He had 38 points, 17 rebounds, 12 blocks, 7 steals, 6 assists.
    Greatest Center of all time

    Do remember that Bill Russel and Wilt Chamberlain had the unfair advantage of blocks and steals not being recorded. Given the dominance those two (especially Wilt) displayed, my gut tells me the "quintuple double" has already been achieved.

    Hakeem had a 29-18-9-11-5 game. 1 assist and 5 steals away. Probably the closest anyone has come to it since blocks and steals were tracked.

    I was thinking the same thing too, except I'm not sure how good Russell and Chamberlain were at steals. I feel like they would have had some trouble, especially Wilt at 7'1".

    Anthony Davis will do it in a couple of years when he becomes a superstar and his usage goes up.
