Nate Thurmond was part of the NBA for 14 years and spent the majority of those years playing for the Golden State Warriors. He is the franchise leader in total rebounds with 12771. He is also one of the very few players to have ever recorded a quadruple-double which speaks volume of his all-round ability.

Thurmond has not one but two games where he scored at least 30 points and pulled down at least 30 boards. The first instance was when the Warriors played the Baltimore Bullets on road. Nate scored 30 points and grabbed 32 rebounds but the Warriors could not win.

The second time he achieved this feat was against the Sixers, almost four years after achieving it for the first time. He totaled 35 points to go along with 34 rebounds but the Warriors were only able to win by one-point.
