Luka Dončić recorded 33 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists tonight to become the 10th player in NBA history to record 50 triple-doubles. Dončić is the second-fastest player to reach 50 triple-doubles as the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Denver Nuggets 127-99.
“It’s pretty impressive. He’s already re-writing the record book. That’s pretty cool – to do it, to be the second [fastest in history]. Oscar [Robertson] was pretty special, so now to be right there with Oscar, to be the second-fastest to 50, just shows you how good he is,” said Mavericks Head Coach Jason Kidd.
Dončić has four 30-point triple-doubles this season, whileChristian Wood finished the game with a season-high 28 points on 11-16 shooting to go with 8 rebounds off the bench.
The Nuggets were led by Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Bruce Brown, each of whom contributed 18 points apiece.
