NEW ORLEANS -- It was little brother's night on Friday inside the Smoothie King Center -- and almost a historic one too.
Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball nearly became the youngest player in NBA history to record a triple-double, as he posted 12 points, 10 rebounds, and nine assists in a 118-110 win over the New Orleans Pelicans and big brother Lonzo Ball.
LaMelo, at 19 years, 139 days, would have passed Markelle Fultz (19 years, 317 days) to become the youngest ever to accomplish the feat.
