Cameron Boozer Triple-Double: Grizzlies Rookie Makes NBA History

Memphis Grizzlies rookie Cameron Boozer posted his first NBA triple-double on Thursday, Oct. 29, 2026, with 18 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists in a 124-103 win at Portland, according to Yahoo Sports. At 19 years and 103 days old, he is now the second-youngest player in league history to record a triple-double, and his first wave of rookie cards lands next week.

Key points

• Boozer had 18 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists in just 28 minutes, shooting 6-of-10 from the field and 4-of-5 from three.
• Only Josh Giddey (19 years, 84 days, in 2022) was younger when he recorded his first triple-double.
• It came in Boozer's fifth NBA game, and Memphis handed previously unbeaten Portland its first loss.
• Yahoo Sports reports he joins Oscar Robertson as the only players with a triple-double before losing an NBA game.
• 2026-27 Topps Basketball, with Boozer in the rookie class, releases Nov. 5, 2026.

What did Cameron Boozer do against the Trail Blazers?

Boozer filled every column in limited minutes. He scored efficiently, controlled the glass and ran a big share of the offense. BVM Sports notes that Memphis already uses him to start and feed pick-and-roll action, so the assist total was not a fluke of one night.

Through five games, Yahoo Sports lists his averages at 15.8 points, 10.8 rebounds and 6.2 assists. Grizzlies coach Tuomas Iisalo joked after the game, "It took him long enough." This follows Boozer's late go-ahead jumper against Golden State earlier in the week, which we covered in our Boozer rookie cards update.

Who is the youngest player with an NBA triple-double?

Josh Giddey still holds the mark. He was 19 years and 84 days old when he did it as a Thunder rookie in 2022. Boozer, at 19 years and 103 days, missed that record by 19 days and now sits second on the list.
