Double-double

From Free net encyclopedia

Double-Double is also a burger at In-N-Out Burger. It is also Canadian slang for a coffee with double cream, double sugar.

A double-double is a basketball term, defined as an individual performance in a game in which a player accumulates a double digit number total in any two of these categories: points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocked shots. The most common double-double is a combination of points and rebounds, and then next is points and assists.

Double-doubles, unlike the more difficult triple-doubles (or ultra-rare quadruple-doubles), are very common in the NBA, and in fact there is usually at least one player in each NBA game that manages to record one. In each NBA season, rarely do more than a handful of players average a double-double.

During the 2004-05 season, only eight players who were eligible for leadership in the main statistical categories averaged a double-double for the entire season (listed in descending order of points per game):

All of the above players averaged double figures in both points and rebounds except for Nash, whose categories were points and assists. Lamar Odom also averaged a double-double in points and rebounds, but played in only 64 games, six short of the 70 required to qualify for statistical leadership.
