Jonathan Mogbo made an impressive mark in his NBA debut by becoming the first rookie this season to achieve a triple-double. He recorded 17 points, 11 assists, and 10 rebounds during the Toronto Raptors' dominant 126-96 victory over the Charlotte Hornets. This marked not only his first triple-double in the NBA but also his first at any competitive level. Celebrated by teammates, Mogbo attributed his milestone to the support from his fellow players and expressed gratitude for the opportunity.

Head Coach Darko Rajakovic praised Mogbo's dedication, highlighting the respect he has earned within the Raptors organization. Playing primarily as a forward, Mogbo has shown adaptability since being drafted in the second round this past summer. Although his average statistics were modest leading up to this game, increased minutes in a playoff-free season allowed him to showcase his potential. Rajakovic emphasized the importance of Mogbo's versatility and development as he transitions into the NBA.
