BRATISLAVA (Slovakia) - Azerbaijan's Emmanuel Agbason achieved a rare feat at the FIBA U20 EuroBasket 2026, Division B, with a triple-double featuring blocks.
The center finished with 12 points, 18 rebounds and 10 blocks as Azerbaijan suffered a 67-57 defeat to North Macedonia in the Group Phase.
Agbason tied the tournament record for blocks in a single game - tying the mark previously set by Albania's Xhuljan Tola in 2023.
Heading into the next phase of the competition, Agbason leads the competition in both rebounds - 15.0 per game - and blocks - 4.0 per game.
There have now been six triple-doubles in the event's history, but Agbason is the first to do so with blocks.
