WASHINGTON, Jan. 21 (Xinhua) -- With 21 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists in the Dallas Mavericks' 116-106 loss against the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday, Dallas forward Luka Doncic became the second-youngest player in NBA history to record a triple-double.

Donic, who turns 20 next month, joins Markelle Fultz of the Philadelphia 76ers as the only teenagers to accomplish the feat.

Fultz was 10 days younger when he collected 13 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in a game last season, also against the Bucks.

Donic was in no mood to celebrate after the game. "I played bad for sure," he said. "I didn't feel good. I am happy for my triple-double, but I would prefer a win and I didn't play good at all. I missed some shots that I shouldn't miss."

Doncic is leading all rookies in scoring this season, averaging 20 points per game.
