The Los Angeles Hall of Famer has been surpassed.
Former 12-time Los Angeles Lakers All-Star point guard Magic Johnson, one of the greatest passers of all time, has been lapped in career triple-doubles by one of L.A.
He and Johnson had been tied with 138 triple-doubles heading into Thursday's bout. In recording his 139th on Thursday, the 6-foot-11 big man only trails Hall of Fame point guard Oscar Robertson's 181 and Nuggets teammate Russell Westbrook's 200.
With the defeat, the eighth-place Nuggets fall to a middling 11-9 record on the season, and are now just mere percentage points ahead of the 12-10 Lakers in a talented Western Conference. Denver has been hemorrhaging championship depth in the years since claiming its 2023 title, letting three of its best seven players from that 2022-23 team leave in free agency without finding suitable replacements for many of them.
