ISTANBUL (AA) - Giannis Antetokounmpo, Nikola Jokic, and Stephen Curry were some of the stars announced as members of the 2020-21 All-NBA first-team selection.
"Antetokounmpo was the only player to receive All-NBA First Team votes on all 100 ballots, earning his third consecutive First Team selection and fifth All-NBA Team honor overall," NBA said in a statement.
The Greek Freak's three First Team All-NBA selections trail only legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s four selections for the most in the history of Milwaukee Bucks.
Serbian forward Jokic became the first Denver Nuggets star in history to receive All-NBA Honors in three straight seasons. He got 99 votes.
Curry, who averaged an NBA-leading 32.0 points this season, had 98 First Team votes in his fourth selection to the First Team and seventh All-NBA Team honor overall, NBA added.
LA Clippers guard Kawhi Leonard has been selected to the All-NBA First Team for the third time and clinched his fifth All-NBA Team selection overall.
Dallas' Luka Doncic has been voted to the All-NBA First Team for the second season in a row. The Slovenian guard became the second player to make the All-NBA First Team at least twice in his first three seasons after Tim Duncan.
The Second Team is composed of Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (372 points), Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (352), Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul (311), New York Knicks forward Julius Randle (253), and Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (174).
The Third Team consists of Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert (148 points), Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (131), Clippers forward Paul George (89), Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (71), and Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (61).
