He currently has 112 triple doubles but if he was a stat padder he would’ve had 158 by now, boosting him from 4th to 3rd all time.

It should also be noted that he got 29 triple doubles in the 2022/23 season and since he missed out on 10 of them as shown above he could’ve padded to a 39 triple double season, which would’ve been the 3rd highest triple double season in NBA history.

Ok

Can you do the same for other players on the triple double leaderboard? I’d be hilarious if someone had 30 season triple doubles but no near triple double game.

My life is going downhill but this information made me feel a bit better. Thank you

There have been some pointless posts on here over the years, and this is one of them.

I almost never see people calling Jokic a stat padder, and when I do, they usually get shredded. You are fighting the voices in your head with that title

[–] Guitaristb72@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Dude usually has like 15 ast thru 3 quarters lol. Not sure how people could say that.

[–] GaTech379@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I've never seen anyone call Jokic a stat padder

[–] RoggiKnotBeard_@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Jokic has led the league in touches per game for six straight seasons averaging 99 touches per game.

Jokic is a stat padder and if his touches were around 75 per game, he’d be irrelevant.

My man is up early! Drinks his coffee and jumps straight onto reddit to defend his…(checks notes)…two time MVP

Why would you put assists second? Standard is Pts/Reb/Ast

[–] a-chill-guy-22@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Who is arguing with you nuggets fans that Jokic is a stat padder? He’s the most beloved player in the history of Reddit and you still find a way to be defensive lol
