The 10 Best Triple-Double Performances in Recent NBA History

T10. Larry Bird, Boston Celtics (3/15/1992)

Like they had done so many times before, Larry Bird and the Boston Celtics met up with Clyde Drexler and the Portland Trail Blazers in a late regular season matchup. But this time, the two teams were knotted up at 122 at the end of regulation. They went to two overtimes before things were decided, and the Celtics coming away with the four-point win.

At the center of that long, hard-fought game was Bird, who tallied 49 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists in a total of 54 minutes. He knocked down 19 of 35 from the field, and on a usage of 35.6%, assisted on 37.3% of his teammates field goals while on the floor. This overall effort earned Bird the win and a Game Score of exactly 42.0.
