Who tops the list, what’s the record since the league’s format changed, and what’s the all-time best performance? Eurohoops does the research and gives you the low-down.
November 3, 2005: Maccabi FOX Tel Aviv’s Vujcic gets the first triple-double (11 points, 12 rebounds, 11 assists against Asseco Prokom Gdynia 95-68) in the modern era of the EuroLeague.
November 30, 2006: The same player gets the second triple-double (27 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists against Union Olimpija Ljubljana 110-87).
November 16, 2017: Panathinaikos Superfoods Athens’ Nick Calathes almost gets there (29 points, 9 rebounds, 10 assists at Anadolu Efes Istanbul 81-82).
December 28, 2017: Real Madrid’s Luka Doncic almost gets there too (20 points, 8 rebounds, 10 assists at Fenerbahce Dogus Istanbul 77-79).
January 16, 2018: Crvena Zvezda mts Belgrade’s Taylor Rochestie was next (27 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists against Khimki Moscow Region 70-79).
January 25, 2018: Another missed opportunity for Calathes (14 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists against Zalgiris Kaunas 94-93 in overtime).
As long as the next triple-double is still being sought, the list of double-doubles is the only one that keeps getting added to. At the same time, this list shows who the EuroLeague’s Do-It-Alls.
