Recording a quadruple-double is probably one of the most impressive achievementsfor a player in an NBA game. Surpassing the ten-point barrier in three different categories is already a huge accomplishment, and doing it in fouris even more mind-blowing.
When a basketballer ends a game with a quadruple-doubleby getting ten or more points, rebounds, steals, blocks, or assists, that goes to the books immediately alongside every other superstar who did it before.
However, a playermay scorea “quadruple-double” but in a worse, sarcasticwayof calling it. It happened many times,evento the greatestofthis sport, thatone of the categories in which they finished with10+was in turnovers.

Sometimes a player may record a quadruple-double but in an unfortunate way by having ten or more turnovers, which in fact wouldn’t count as a quadruple-double. Many playershad more than ten turnovers in a single game.

Hall of Famer Jason Kidd had the highest turnovers- 14 – while he reached the 10+ mark in three other categories in Phoenix Suns‘ loss against New York Knicksin November 2000. That remainsthe highest amount of turnovers in a single game in NBA history, and it happened to a player that finished with a triple-double simultaneously.
However, Kidd wasn’t the only one who suffered this. There weremore in the history of the league, and from the currentbasketballers,Russell Westbrook and James Hardenlead the ranking of”quadruple-doubles” with turnovers.
