#8 May 3rd, 2014 vs Memphis

This is the only playoff triple double to make the list and what a clutch triple double it was. The Thunder were in the midst of one of the toughest series they ever had in the Russ-KD era, being pushed to the brink by the Grit and Grind Grizzlies and facing game 7 at home after rallying to win game 6 on the road. Russ came out and laid the smack down throwing up 27 points on 62% shooting (5-6 free throws), with 10 rebounds and 16 assists.

Games like these build the cult of Russ. Back against the wall, need him to step up and dominate, and he shows up with even more than you could ask for. This was one of those series where people began questioning if Russ and Kevin Durant were ever going to be the perfect fit, but with Russ' ridiculous triple double and KD dropping 33 points and 8 rebounds on 67% shooting, we were ensured another year of watching these two dominant players play together.
