The Double Triple Double - Nikola Jokic

Nikola Jokic had 32 points, 30 rebounds, and 20 assists. It just took him 26 hours to do it. Slacker.

How remarkable is a back-to-back road-tripping pair of u0422u0440u0438u043fu043bu0435 u0414u043eu0443u0431u043bu0435? That’s Serbian for "triple double", if Google Translate is steering me straight. Here’s the bits of data I could find to provide a little context for the Joker’s 26 hours.

In the last 31 seasons, less than 30 guys* have had consecutive triple-doubles in the NBA. It doesn’t happen very often. That asterisk exists as the figure is a cobbling of the 27 players I could find via basketball-reference.
