Luka Doncic becomes second teen ever to record triple double

With 21 points, 11 rebounds and 10assists, Luka Doncic etched his name in the history books Monday afternoon becoming the second youngest player in NBA history to record a triple double, trailing just Philadelphia 76ersMarkelle Fultz who recorded a triple double in April last season. The Mavericks needed every ounce of effort against the Bucks on Monday.

Two of the five youngest players ever with a triple-double are on the Mavericks: Luka Doncic and Dennis Smith Jr. (20 years, 34 days).

Doncic knocked on the door of a triple double earlier this season, coming up a rebound short against the New Orleans Pelicans December 26, which would have given him the accomplishment at 19 years and 301 days old.
