Domantas Sabonis, from Sacramento Kings, is a front-runner of the NBA with his notably rock-solid display week after week, as he was crowned for the achievement. As for the unfortunate fact, that he missed out on an NBA All-Star selection this season, Sabonis nonetheless proved himself as the first one after Kevin Love to have a gamut of double-doubles, reaching 54 double-doubles with double digits in points and rebounds.
The shining moment happened in a game when he was like a process by which he netted his 10th point and 10th rebound in a single play in the 3rd quarter. This accomplishment is far beyond what the legendary Love had achieved over a decade ago and it demonstrates Sabonis’s striking talent and dependability in his work to tower the NBA.

Nobody can deny that Sabonis scored pretty highly. Nevertheless, when it comes to the pre-merger record, Chuck Chamberlain beats him hands down (227 consecutive double-doubles in a row). Although these gaps are significant to the statistics, Sabonis remains on the path of setting a new record for the most double-doubles in a single post-merger season which is currently owned by Hakeem Olajuwon.
Being at the top, Domantas Sabonis notched up 67 double-doubles, leaving him 11 games until the end of the regular season with the chance to surpass Olajuwon’s record, a clear statement of his status as one of the most consistent NBA players of modern times. In that regard, his triple-double statistics only add to his considerable performance reaching for NBA top rankers and underlining his all-round capabilities.
In an age where there is an abundance of shells and stardom that are often fluid, like the stars, Sabonis stands out like the North Star amid the success of Sacramento since he became the team’s player. This incredible result thus sexualizes his greatness not only as an individual but his key part in moulding the fate of the Kings’ basketball court.
