Damion Baugh Makes History With First Ever Triple-Double in Basketball Africa League

Posted : 05 April 2026

Damion De’Von Baugh has etched his name into the record books of African basketball. During Al Ahly Ly’s 110-72 victory over Dar City on April 4, 2026, the former NBA player achieved the first triple-double in the history of the Basketball Africa League. This historic performance took place at the SunBet Arena in Pretoria, South Africa.

Baugh spent just over 29 minutes on the court to secure this unprecedented milestone. He finished the game with 11 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists. His clinical playmaking and rebounding helped Al Ahly Ly dominate the Tanzanian champions from the opening tip-off.

This achievement comes shortly after Baugh broke another league record earlier in the week. Five days prior, he recorded 18 assists in a single game against the same opponents. That high-scoring match ended 118-97, marking it as the most prolific offensive game in the league's existence.

Al Ahly Ly finished their Kalahari Conference campaign on a high note with three consecutive victories. This run secured them an overall record of 3-2 and a guaranteed spot in the 2026 BAL Playoffs. The team showed great chemistry, with Baugh acting as the primary engine for their transition offense.

Coach Ivan Jeremic praised the collective effort but acknowledged the significance of Baugh’s individual brilliance. The guard’s ability to influence every facet of the game has made Al Ahly Ly one of the favorites for the title. They now look ahead to the postseason tournament scheduled for next month.

The Kalahari Conference standings concluded with Al Ahly Ly taking the third playoff spot. RSSB Tigers led the group with a perfect 4-0 start, while Dar City managed to clinch the final ticket despite the heavy loss. The stage is now set for an intense knockout phase in the coming weeks.
