1. James Harden, Houston Rockets (12/31/2016)

There's that man Mr. Harden again. Believe it or not, among all the greats to post triple-doubles, he's the one that makes up the top two spots on this list.

In the Houston Rockets' 129-122 win over the New York Knicks, Harden scored 53 points while handing out 17 assists and pulling down 16 rebounds. He shot to a true shooting percentage of 78.1%, assisted on 74.5% of his teammates' field goals and secured 30.3% of all available rebounds while on the floor.

He was everything for Houston, and for that he possesses a Game Score of 48.7 -- the highest in a triple-double by a decent margin.
