DFS: 5 Triple-Double Threats
Some DFS sites reward players extra points for triple-doubles - and those extra points can give you the advantage you need to win your competition.
These five players are brimming with enough talent to rack up triple-doubles:
PG Russell Westbrook, Oklahoma City Thunder
NBA players recorded 46 triple-doubles last season - and Westbrook led the way with 11 of them.
Westbrook is a triple-double machine and brings promising fantasy production.Intensity mixed with bringing the ball up the court as the PG provides even more opportunities to rack up counting stats.
SF LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers
Is there anything 'Bron-Bron' can't do?
King James recorded two triple-doubles in 2014-2015 and has recorded at least one in each season since 2012. James has some competition for triple-doubles on his own team in PF Kevin Love and PG Kyrie Irving, but the Cavs' coveted superstar is in the best position to rack up rebounds and assists.
PG Rajon Rondo, Sacramento Kings
When you think triple-doubles, Rondo is probably one of the first names to come to mind.
The former Boston Celtics and Dallas Mavericks PG has recorded at least one triple double for seven straight season - leading the league twice. He is the biggest threat to record the impressive statistic, but finds himself in a competition for minutes with Darren Collison.
SF Kevin Durant, Oklahoma City Thunder
Injuries plagued the former NBA MVP last season, holding him to 27 games - and zero triple-doubles for the first time since the 2011-2012 season.
Durant is a monster all over the court; when healthy and playing alongside Westbrook and bruising PF Serge Ibaka, the triple-double upside Durant possesses is extremely tough to pass up.
PF Kevin Love, Cleveland Cavaliers
The stand-up PF saw a drop in production last season due to a new role on a talented Cavaliers team, but Love still receives his fair share of opportunities to regularly post big numbers.
Like the other players listed, Love has been in a position to lead the NBA in triple-doubles every year. He possess the body, skill, aggressiveness and ability to dish the ball like a guard - giving him a chance to rack up assists.
