LaMelo Ball's record didn't last long.
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey finished with a triple-double of 17 points, 14 assists and 13 rebounds during Sunday's 95-86 loss to the Dallas Mavericks. It was quite the showing for the rookie, although it wasn't enough to overcome OKC's general issues on the offensive end during a low-scoring affair.
Giddey broke LaMelo Ball's record as the youngest player in NBA history to finish a game with a triple-double.

Giddey turned 19 years old in October, while Ball turned 19 in August 2020 before his rookie campaign.
