Denver Nuggets centre Nikola Jokic has created history by registering the quickest triple-double in NBA history.
It took the 22-year-old just 14 minutes and 33 seconds of court time to achieve the feat in his side’s 134-123 win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday.
Jokic ended up with 30 points, 17 assists and 15 rebounds to help the Nuggets improve their season record to 32-26.
The Serbian native was ably assisted by Gary Harris (28 points) and Jamal Murray (26).
Giannis Antetokounmpo scored a triple-double of his own for the Bucks, which featured 36 points, 13 assists and 11 rebounds, but it wasn’t enough as the Bucks left the BMO Harris Bradley Center with a 32-25 record.
The Nuggets and Bucks occupy sixth spot in the Western and Eastern Conferences respectively.
