In the Pistons' 118-102 win over the Bulls on Saturday, Duren racked up: 23 points, 15 rebounds and five assists. The only other teenager to accomplish the feat? LeBron James, who put up 33 points, 16 rebounds, and seven assists on Nov 9th, 2003.

LeBron James was 18 years, 334 days. Jalen Duren tonight was 19 years, 344 days.

Duren also matched LeBron in an age-related feat last February, when Duren became fourth rookie to have a 30-point, 15-rebound game – joining LeBron, Paolo Banchero and Moses Malone.

After averaging 9.3 points and 9.1 rebounds in his rookie year, Duren is putting up 17.6 points and more than 15 rebounds per game through the Pistons' first three games.

As someone who has had to see Andre Drummond play previously, I almost don't care about the raw stats, what I care about is that he already feels like a better rim protector/intimidator then Dre (to be fair, he's playing with way more defensive talent around him which helps)
