Wilt Chamberlain did not rank on this list despite having three games in his career with at least 25 points, 12 rebounds, and 9 assists on 90% or better shooting. It’s crucial to remember that blocks and thefts were not tracked at the time. With the points, rebounds, assists, and field goal %, it is reasonable to assume that Chamberlain had at least one game with two steals and a block. If so, Jokic and Chamberlain would be the only players to have recorded such a line.
