This night, the league introduced its All-NBA Groups for the 2023-2024 season. For the third consecutive 12 months, Jayson Tatum completed with All-NBA First Staff honors. In 2020, Tatum made the Third Staff.
Tatum was joined by the Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Mavericks’ Luka Doncic, The Thunder’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and Denver’s Nikola Jokic. Tatum edged out the Knicks’ Jalen Brunson with 65 first place votes and 34 second place votes vs. 37 first place votes and 61 second place votes.
In his seventh season at age 26, Tatum averaged practically 27 factors, 8 rebounds, and 5 assists per sport in arguably his best season up to now for the 64-18 Celtics. Tatum grew to become eligible for the supermax extension final 12 months with the identical recognition and will signal a five-year, $315 million contract this summer time.
Jaylen Brown, who completed final 12 months on the All-NBA Second Staff, was the best vote getter amongst All-NBA snubs, ending with 50 third place votes. Final offseason, due to the All-NBA choice, Brown was eligible for and signed his supermax extension of $304 million final July.
