Gilgeous-Alexander, Jokic, Antetokounmpo named to first-team All-NBA

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Nikola Jokic unanimous selections to the All-NBA team; LeBron James is the first 40-year-old to be named All-NBA

Oklahoma City Thunder guard and league MVP Shai-Gilgeous Alexander and Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic headline the first-team All-NBA team, announced Friday.

Also named to the first team were Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum and Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell.

Gilgeous-Alexander were unanimous selections in a repeat of last season. Tatum and Antetokounmpo were also unanimous picks and Mitchell made the first team for the first time.

Antetokounmpo has seven first-team selections and nine appearances on the All-NBA team overall. Jokic is a five-time first-teamer and seven-time All-NBA pick, Tatum is first-team for the fourth time (fifth overall), Gilgeous-Alexander has been first-team in all three of his All-NBA appearances, and Mitchell is All-NBA for the second time in his career.

LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers is an All-NBA player for the 21st time in 22 seasons. He made the second team.

James is the first 40-year-old to make an All-NBA team - he turned 40 in December. He has 13 first-team appearances, four second-team selections and four third-team nods.

No other player has more than 15 All-NBA selections. Kobe Bryant (11 first-team picks), Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (10 first-team picks) and Tim Duncan (10 first-team picks) are the other members of the 15-time club.

Also on the second team: Minnesota’s Anthony Edwards, Cleveland's Evan Mobley, Golden State’s Stephen Curry and New York's Jalen Brunson.

Curry made All-NBA for the 11th time, something only 21 players in NBA history have done. Edwards and Brunson are two-time All-NBA players, and Mobley made a team for the first time.

Detroit's Cade Cunningham, Indiana's Tyrese Haliburton, the Los Angeles Clippers' James Harden, New York's Karl-Anthony Towns and Oklahoma City's Jalen Williams were named to the third team.

Harden is an eight-time selection, Towns is a three-time pick, Haliburton made a team for the second time and Cunningham and Williams are both All-NBA for the first time.
