In his first national television game, LaMelo Ball stepped up in the bright lights.
Squaring off with brother Lonzo for the first time ever in a competitive game, LaMelo put on the show, finishing one assist shy of becoming the youngest ever in NBA history to record a triple-double.
At 19 years and 139 days, Ball would have passed Markelle Fultz’s current record of 19 years, 317 days by nearly six months.
While Ball did not accomplish the feat on Friday, he’ll have effectively the entire season and potential playoffs to possibly break the record
