Alperen Sengun checks out against the Kings: 10 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists becoming the youngest Center in NBA history to record a triple-double.

Edit: At 20 years and 170 days old*

Alperen Sengun also becomes the Rockets youngest ever player to record a triple-double.

Alperen Sengun is the first Rockets Center since Hakeem Olajuwon (1997) to record a triple-double in game

Edit: Chuck Hayes was the last Rockets center to get a triple double back in 2011

Sengun did this at 20 years, 120 days old.

Previous youngest triple double for a center was KAT at 21 years, 43 days old.

Sengun > Sabonis > Jokic is a true NBA Pokemon evolution chain

Stealing the top comment to remind everyone about Chuck Hayes and his triple double after he became our starting center.

Can't believe no one else has brought it up because it wasn't that long ago, I'm not that old right? :(

Sengun said that he is inspired by Jokic so it makes sense
