Fultz had 13 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in 25 minutes off the bench as the Sixers won their 16th straight game, 130-95, over the Milwaukee Bucks.

At 19 years and 317 days, Fultz is the first teenager to ever post a triple-double and bests Los Angeles Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball (20 years, 15 days), who earlier this season took over the distinction from Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James (20 years, 20 days).

Fultz's landmark night provided an uplifting finish to a rookie regular season that was marred by a lengthy absence due to injury that kept him out of the lineup for 68 games.

"To see his teammates react to Markelle Fultz was special," 76ers coach Brett Brown said. "I think it's a snapshot into who these guys are."

Fultz, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2017 draft, entered Wednesday averaging 7.0 points, 2.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists since returning from his shoulder injury.

In their first playoff appearance since the 2011-12 season, the third-seeded Sixers will face the No. 6 seed Miami Heat.
