Nikola Jokic has done it again!
In a game between the Denver Nuggets and the Atlanta Hawks, Jokic showed why he is one of the best players in NBA history.
The Serbian superstar recorded a triple-double in just 20 minutes and 16 seconds, making it one of the fastest triple-doubles ever.
A triple-double happens when a player gets double-digit numbers in three different statistical categories during a game.
For example, Jokic had more than 10 points, 10 assists, and 10 rebounds. This performance helped the Nuggets win the game and gave fans another reason to call him “The Joker,” his famous nickname.
Jokic now holds two spots on the list of the fastest triple-doubles in NBA history.
His earlier record of 14 minutes and 33 seconds from 2018 still stands as the quickest ever.
This new record further cements his place as one of the most unique players the league has ever seen.
