Did Victor Wembanyama record a quintuple-double? Closer look after record-shattering performance

Victor Wembanyama arrived in Toronto on a mission and possibly had the best performance of his young career. He was simply unstoppable on both ends of the floor, but did the San Antonio Spurs superstar record a rare quintuple-double?

Wembanyama ended Monday's game against the Raptors with 27 points, 14 rebounds, five assists and 10 blocks. He was five assists shy of a quadruple-double, something he could accomplish when the Spurs start surrounding him with better talent.

The 2023 first overall pick went 10-for-14, as the Raptors had no answer for him on offense and defense. He led the Spurs to a 122-99 victory, the team's 11th win of the season.

Victor Wembanyama is probably one of only a handful of players in the NBA right now who could record a quadruple-double.

It has been almost 30 years since a player recorded a quadruple-double. The last player to do it was David Robinson of the San Antonio Spurs, posting 34 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists and 10 blocks.

Meanwhile, a quintuple-double, it has never been accomplished in an NBA game. Many statisticians believe that Wilt Chamberlain recorded quintuple-doubles in his legendary career, but steals and blocks were not recorded until the 1974 season.

Wembanyama has the skillset to record a quintuple-double, as he can score, rebound and block shots. He may need to do some extra work to reach double-digit steals and will need his teammates to be perfect to get at least 10 assists.

Nevertheless, the Spurs superstar could be the next player to record a quadruple-double or even a five-by-five. Hakeem Olajuwon holds the record for most five-by-fives in NBA history, with six.
