In NBA games, it is not difficult to score 15+ points in a single game, and it is even easier for top stars, with an average score of 20+ or even 30+ per game. And there are not many people who can score 5+ points and 15+ rebounds in a game. If you add 15+ assists, this is even rarer. Some superstars also have a hard time in their entire careers, which requires players to have extremely well-rounded ability, such as scoring, passing, and grabbing rebounds. The 2023-24 NBA regular season is drawing to a close, and it wasn't until the most recent game day that a player achieved this feat for the third time. The first time was Doncic's super triple-double of 36 points, 15 rebounds and 18 assists against the Thunder, the second time was the super triple-double of 23 points, 17 rebounds and 15 assists in the game against the Bucks, and the third time was the current triple-double king Westbrook.
In the Clippers' game against the Suns, due to Harden's injury, Wei Shao got the chance to start again after 5 months. And he also handed over a very eye-catching data sheet. Appeared in 39 minutes and 41 seconds, shot 7 of 17, including 2 of 4 three-pointers, and scored 16 points, 15 rebounds, 15 assists and 2 steals. got the first triple-double of his Clippers career, and it was also the 199th triple-double of his career, ushering in a career milestone again!

According to statistics, this is the 10th time in Wei Shao's career that he has cut such a large triple-double in a single game, which is the first in active duty and the second in history. He has delivered 33 points, 19 rebounds and 15 assists in the game, and 20 points, 20 rebounds and 21 assists such as super luxury triple-doubles. To be honest, for a 3-pair madman like Wei Shao, such data is not too surprising. But what surprised people is that Wei Shao is no longer at his peak, but he can still deliver such an explosive performance, which shows how strong his physical fitness is.
Doncic, on the other hand, has had three 15+15+15 performances in his career. In addition to playing against the Thunder this season, Doncic also played an explosive performance of 36 points, 16 rebounds and 15 assists in a single game against the Bulls in '21. Although he is still seven times away from Westbrook and ranks fifth all-time, Doncic is currently only 25 years old, and he still has a lot of time to catch up with the legend in front of him. It is worth mentioning that Doncic has now won the 60th triple-double of his career.

It was five years ago that Brother Alphabet achieved this feat, and Harden was seven years ago during the Rockets. Although Harden only had one 15×3 triple-double, he was the one with the highest score, with 53 points, 16 rebounds and 17 assists, which can be called an epic triple-double performance!
Behind Wei Shao is the handsome Chamberlain, who has played super 3-doubles 8 times. The NBA has the most 15×3 times in a single game is Big O, who has achieved this feat 15 times, ranking first in history. And the big O is not only a lot of times, but also of high quality.
