San Antonio Spurs History: Tim Duncan nearly posts quadruple-double in 2003 Finals

Up until recently, the triple-double was a coveted and seemingly impossible feat to accomplish as a professional basketball player. It was left to players at the peak of powers like historic point guard Magic Johnson, lifelong phenomenon LeBron James and the savior of the San Antonio Spurs: power forward Tim Duncan.

Now, it’s become more common than ever with players from varying levels of fame and status reaching the mark throughout the regular season. However, the quadruple-double is in a league of its own with only four players, including San Antonio Spurs center David Robinson, ever reaching the achievement.
