Domantas Sabonis of the Sacramento Kings has achieved a significant milestone in the NBA, securing his 77th double-double of the season in a game against Portland. This achievement ties him with Moses Malone for the most double-doubles in a single season since the ABA-NBA merger. Earlier, Sabonis surpassed Jerry Lucas's record from the 1965-66 season, achieving his 76th double-double against Phoenix, placing him second in the franchise's history for most double-doubles in a single season. Additionally, Sabonis's performance included his first triple in 10 games and notable statistics in a game where he scored 16 points, grabbed 9 rebounds, and distributed 9 assists. In one remarkable game, Sabonis had 6 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists in the first 10 minutes. This season, Sabonis has become just the 7th player in NBA history to reach 77 double-doubles, marking a historic moment since Moses Malone achieved the same feat in the 1978-79 season.
