— -- The NBA’s youth movement was on display Wednesday, when four teens played in the same game, a first for the NBA.

The Minnesota Timberwolves-Milwaukee Bucks matchup featured Andrew Wiggins, Zach LaVine, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jabari Parker, all 19.

All four of the players started in Milwaukee’s 103-86 victory. Antetokounmpo scored 13 points and grabbed eight rebounds for Milwaukee, with teammate Parker adding 11 points. For Minnesota, Wiggins recorded 14 points and eight rebounds. LaVine scored 12 points.

The rivalry between Wiggins and Parker brought added attention to the game, their first NBA matchup since being selected No. 1 and 2 in the 2014 NBA Draft. The players crossed paths during the third quarter, when Wiggins swatted away a shot attempt by Parker.

Beyond this season’s Timberwolves and Bucks, the last team to start two players under the age of 20 was the 2005-06 Atlanta Hawks.

The feat won’t happen again soon, not with this group, anyway. Antetokounmpo will be 20 the next time the teams play Jan. 9.
