Brooklyn Nets forward Mirza Teletovic started the ninth game of his NBA career in place of Kevin Garnett Thursday night, and he put on quite a performance, finishing with 26 points (9-13 FG, 5-7 3P), 15 rebounds, and two assists in 43 minutes in a 95-93 upset victory over the San Antonio Spurs.
Teletovic became the first player this season and the 16th in NBA history to grab 15 rebounds and hit five threes in the same game, per Basketball-Reference.
