Is this averaging a triple double?

Jokic, meanwhile, nearly became the first center -- and only the third player ever, after Russell Westbrook and Oscar Robertson -- to average a triple-double for a season, finishing with averages of 24.5 points, 11.8 rebounds and 9.8 assists while shooting 63% from the field for the Western Conference-leading Nuggets.

No it doesn't actually matter.
Yes it's incredibly impressive regardless of what it's called.

Is that a triple double average though?



Side note, the last 5 awards have gone to foreign players who are all front court players. The foreign thing hasn't happened before and 5 front court players in a row hasn't happened since the 70s.

No, it’s not, but it says “nearly became”.
