Heres the definition from wikipedia...

Quote:
A triple-double is a basketball term, defined as an individual performance in a game in which a player accumulates double-digit totals (i.e., 10 or more) in any three of these categories: points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocked shots.
The most common way for a player to achieve a triple-double is with points, rebounds, and assists, though on occasion elite defensive players may record 10 or more steals or blocked shots in a game.
A triple-double is seen as an indication of an excellent all-around individual performance. In the American National Basketball Association, they are rare but not unheard-of, as the top players can accumulate around 10 (out of a possible 82) in a season. It should be noted that the criteria for an assist has been relaxed over time, making triple-doubles more common in today's game than it was prior to the 1980's
