Luka Doncic Rises to 7th on NBA’s All-Time Triple-Double List with Career-Defining 79th Performance
Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic added another chapter to his young career by climbing to seventh on the NBA’s all-time triple-double leaderboard. He achieved his 79th career triple-double in a dominant performance against the Utah Jazz on December 9, 2024, further cementing his place among the league’s all-time greats.
At just 25 years old, Doncic surpassed Larry Bird, who recorded 78 triple-doubles during his Hall of Fame career. Doncic’s latest effort showcased his unparalleled playmaking and scoring ability, with a stat line that included 31 points, 13 assists, and 10 rebounds. The Mavericks secured a crucial win as Doncic continues to lead the team in their playoff push.
Only six players now stand ahead of Doncic on the list, including legends like Oscar Robertson, Magic Johnson, and Russell Westbrook. Analysts predict Doncic has a strong chance to eventually challenge the all-time record of 198 triple-doubles held by Westbrook, thanks to his age and consistency.
With each milestone, Doncic’s resume grows, making him a frontrunner for future MVP awards and potentially the Hall of Fame【6】【7】.
