Draymond Green: 12 Rebounds, 10 Assists, 10 Steals<\/h3>\n<p>On February 10, 2017, <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/g\/greendr01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Draymond Green<\/a> made history. With an outing against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/basketball\/2024\/09\/02\/above-the-rim-but-under-the-radar-a-look-at-the-2024-25-memphis-grizzlies\/\" target=\"_self\">Memphis Grizzlies<\/a>, Green, the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/basketball\/2024\/08\/27\/golden-state-warriors-working-out-former-first-round-pick-bruno-caboclo\/\" target=\"_self\">Golden State Warriors<\/a> power forward, recorded the first-ever triple-double with fewer than 10 points. He tallied 12 rebounds, 10 assists, and 10 steals, with only four points. He also had five blocks that game, and helped the Warriors defeat the Grizzlies 122-107. Green has always been a guy to impact the game without scoring, and safe to say, he was a huge factor in that Warriors win.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">A triple-double with no points?!

C.J. Watson: 1 Point, 1 Assist, 1 Rebound, 1 Steal, 1 Block, 1 Turnover (Wearing No. 1)<\/h3>\n<p>Former Brooklyn Nets point guard, <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/w\/watsocj01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">C.J. Watson<\/a>, has posted some incredible games throughout his career, but none will be remembered like this game. On April 4, 2013, the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/basketball\/2024\/09\/11\/the-nets-have-a-cam-johnson-contract-conundrum\/\" target=\"_self\">Brooklyn Nets<\/a> faced off against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/basketball\/2024\/08\/30\/expectations-for-chicago-bulls-newcomers-in-2024-2025\/\" target=\"_self\">Chicago Bulls<\/a>, and C.J. Watson <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/nba\/comments\/9ajq1n\/cj_watson_once_put_up_the_following_stat_line_1\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">recorded<\/a> one point, one assist, one rebound, one steal, one block, and one turnover. He did all of that while wearing the number one on the back of his jersey. The Nets went on to lose the game 92-90.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Cal Bowlder: 7 Personal Fouls<\/h3>\n<p>Former Atlanta Hawks forward, <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/b\/bowdlca01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cal Bowlder<\/a>, didn&#8217;t see much success in the NBA, only playing three total seasons averaging just 3.0 points a game on his career. However, there is one thing Bowlder will be remembered for. On November 13, 1999, Cal Bowlder had just two points with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.basketballnetwork.net\/old-school\/the-only-player-in-nba-history-to-commit-seven-fouls\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">seven fouls<\/a>! Due to the referees making a mistake regarding Bowlder&#8217;s foul count, he didn&#8217;t exit the game until his seventh foul.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Rasual Butler: 0 Minutes, 1 Turnover<\/h3>\n<p>On February 12, 2012, Toronto Raptors&#8217; wing <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/b\/butlera01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rasual Butler<\/a>, recorded a stat line that some would dare to say is impossible. Raptors coach,\u00a0Dwane Casey, subbed in Butler for the first time all game to make the inbounds pass. <a href=\"https:\/\/clutchpoints.com\/nba-history-top-3-single-game-stat-lines\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Butler<\/a> couldn&#8217;t find somebody to inbound the ball to and was called for a five-second violation. Butler did not see the floor for the remainder of the game, leaving him with zero minutes and one turnover.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Dennis Rodman: 0 points, 28 Rebounds<\/h3>\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/r\/rodmade01.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dennis Rodman<\/a>\u00a0is arguably the greatest rebounder to ever play the game. The 6-foot-7 power forward posted 18.7 rebounds a game in the 1991-92 season, to go along with six seasons averaging 15 rebounds or more. Rodman was so dominant on the boards, that he finished 10th in MVP one year, simply because of how dominant he was on the glass.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Dennis Rodman once put up these three stat lines in under a month:<\/p>\n<p>0 PTS | 28 REB<br \/>\n0 PTS | 25 REB<br \/>\n0 PTS | 24 REB<\/p>\n<p>A top ___ rebounder of all-time. <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0tTuaB6ZjE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/0tTuaB6ZjE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 StatMuse (@statmuse) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/statmuse\/status\/1549439153007431680?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">July 19, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>On December 1, 1993, San Antonio Spurs power forward, Rodman recorded the most unique yet impressive stat line in NBA history.
